Living with the seas - World Ocean Review
> The oceans are difficult to comprehend in their inaccessibility and dimension, and for the most part elude our awareness. And they have hardly an advocate nor a lobby. This is all the more remarkable given that the oceans have a significant impact on our climate and are an increasingly important source of food. In order to raise public awareness of marine science and thus contribute to more effective marine protection, mareverlag founded the non-profit company maribus in 2008. No commercial thought, but only the highest possible attention for the concerns of the seas should be in the foreground.
