A SHARED LOVE OF THE OCEAN

One of the main things that Ed the Bear and I have in common is our love for the ocean. We are also both very concerned about the damage that is being done to the oceans and marine wildlife by human activities.

Ed the Bears adventures begin at his local beach the Shoreham Beach Local Nature Reserve. The beach was designated a nature reserve to protect the local and globally rare habitat ‘vegetated shingle’. This is made up of over 90 different types of special plants that grow on the beach and provide a home for a wide range of wildlife such as birds, butterflies, bees and lizards.

Ed discovered that this beach was threatened by global issues such as climate change. Ed begins his adventures to find out more about these dangers and how they might affect his beach. On the way he encounters some amazing wildlife.

ED TRAVELS THE OCEANS

Back in November 2009, Ed the Bear was first invited to visit different locations around the world and travelled through much of 2010. He has been reporting back on his experiences on this weblog.

Ed the Bear has shared his experiences about the amazing wildlife he has encountered and the people he has met on the way. He has been investigating the damage to ocean habitats and also the things that people are doing to help repair this damage.

Ed the Bear will soon be travelling again in 2011. To find out more about his travels check out the various entries on this weblog. To find out more about why Ed has been traveling the world you will soon be able to follow a link to another Ed the Bear weblog.

We often hear about how we should save energy and water, recycle our rubbish. The focus of this is how we will suffer if we keep treating the planet in an un-stainable way. While this is true, it is the ocean wildlife that will suffer first which it terribly unfair as they do not create these problems. So Ed will also be reporting back on the beautiful marine habitats and wildlife he encounters. Just seeing these animals sums up far better than any words why we need to protect the oceans and of course in doing so we will also be helping our own futures. When Ed is in the UK he will be available to visit schools to pass on what he has discovered during his travels

A MESSAGE FROM ED THE BEAR, THE ADVENTURE BEGINS

Hi everyone,

I hope you will follow my expedition around the world to investigate the threats to the oceans and ulitmately to my own local beach. Many of the threats, such as global warming, have a far reaching affect as oceans play a major role in controlling the world climate and weather. Global warming is also killing coral reefs and damaging marine food webs.

Many species of marine fish are being overfished and marine litter kills thousands of seabirds, sea mammals and other marine life every year. As part of my journey I will be staying with organisations and individuals to find out what they are doing to tackle these issue.

As well as investigating these environmental issues I also hope to see some of the worlds most beautiful habitats and see amazing wildlife up close such as whales, sharks, sealions, turtles and much, much more.

At the start of my journey I have shared some of my experiences of the coast and marine life near where I live as this has been the inspiration behind my expedition so do check out my earlier messages too.

Please leave me a message about your thoughts and views by adding a comment to my web messages.
