In 2008, the United Nations (UN) resolved that June 8th would be designated as World Oceans Day. The day is a global event that is observed annually on the 8th of June for the conservation and protection of the oceans of the world as well as a reminder of the importance the oceans have in our everyday life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Why our oceans are important?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe ocean covers 70 percent of the Earth\u2019s surface and contains 97% of the planet\u2019s water, is the planet&#8217;s largest biosphere and home to up to 80 percent of all life in the world. Over three billion people depend on marine and coastal resources for their livelihoods and its crucial for global food security and human health.\u00a0 The ocean generates 50 percent of the oxygen we need, absorbs 25 percent of all carbon dioxide emissions and captures 90 percent of the additional heat generated from those emissions.\u201d United Nations, 2020<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Ocean is of such importance that the UN\u2019s post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework has identified protection of 30% of land and ocean by 2030, as a global goal. Canada is also doing our part in safeguarding the protection of ocean diversity, the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) Marine Protected Area (MPA) Network has designated 3 MPAs in the Arctic Ocean, 8 in the Atlantic Ocean and 3 in the Pacific Ocean since 2003.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><strong>What is the RCN doing to protect and sustain our Oceans?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The MARLANT and MARPAC operational range and training areas are paramount to the DND\u2019s ability to generate multi-purpose, combat effective forces in the maritime environment. These areas are also home to several threatened and endangered marine species-at-risk, as well as, designated critical habitat and MPAs.\u00a0 The Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) respective coastal environment staffs continue to participate in the process for determining and designating MPAs, which includes collaborating with other federal partners such as Fisheries and Oceans Canada, Transport Canada, Environment and Climate Change Canada, and Parks Canada to ensure activities are being carried out in a manner that minimizes the environmental effects of military training activities within our maritime range and training areas to help keep our oceans\u2019 habitat protected and sustainable for years to come.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">World Oceans Day celebrations this year will take place as a virtual event.

This level of treatment includes mechanical solids separation augmented by chemical treatment to enhance removal of suspended solids.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With an increase in use of sanitizing wipes and protective rubber gloves during the COVID-19 pandemic, Halifax Water has identified an increase in improper disposal of these items. Wipes and gloves don\u2019t break down and get caught up in wastewater treatment facility screens and filters and clog wastewater pumping station pumps. These items belong in the garbage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The sewage from our kitchens and bathrooms is not the only source of contaminants entering our harbour. Joining the sewage in the various collection systems are many other contaminants. Household items such as pharmaceuticals, paints, solvents, fats, oils and greases, motor oil, and antifreeze cannot be effectively treated by wastewater treatment plants. They will ultimately end up entering the harbour untreated after passing through the wastewater treatment plants. These household items should be disposed of at household special waste drop-off depots, not be poured down drains.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plastic pollution is another major threat to our harbour. Most marine plastic pollution has either been littered or inadequately disposed. In either case, it can be transported to the harbour by wind, storm sewers or other waterways. During the 28<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Annual Friends of McNabs Island Beach Cleanup in 2019, the group collected approximately 350 bags of garbage and recyclables. Most of the trash collected was land-based plastic (food containers, plastic bags, cigarette butts, cups and bottles). To help reduce this influx of plastic into the harbour: do not litter, collect litter if you see it (wearing gloves) and call 311 to report overfilled public garbage and recycling bins.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What additional measures have you taken to keep the Halifax Harbour clean?

For instance, each year, marine plants produce more than half of our atmosphere&#8217;s oxygen, and a mature tree cleans our air, absorbing 22 kilograms of carbon dioxide, releasing oxygen in exchange.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s ironic that COVID-19, which has forced us indoors, has had the positive side effect of clearing skies all over the world as we burn fewer fossil fuels. At the same time; however, some eco-friendly behaviours have had to be eclipsed by immediate safety precautions. For example, we\u2019re now required to use many disposable and plastic products we might have avoided before. We can\u2019t refill bulk containers, or travel mugs or put our groceries in our own reusable bags.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact with nature has significant personal and societal health and well-being benefits. During these times of physical distancing, connecting and experiencing nature have not been easy. With the recent reopening of national, provincial and municipal parks and trails, our ability to explore nature has returned to some degree. Love of nature motivates positive action, which is empowering and meaningful.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below are some ideas for getting back to nature with your family while respecting the current physical distancing requirements:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Complete a neighbourhood climate and environment-related scavenger hunt for nature in and around your home with your children (attached);\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get to know the birds in our province with the\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/birdscanada.org\/volunteer\/atlas\/index.jsp?lang=EN\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Breeding Bird Atlas<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inspire young Canadians with\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.parks-parcs.ca\/english\/nature-playbook.php\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Nature Playbook<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">; or<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/environment-climate-change\/services\/biokits\/explore\/halifax-regional-municipality-urban.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HRM Urban BioKit<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> ou <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/environment-climate-change\/services\/biokits\/explore\/trans-canada-trail.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trans Canada Trail BioKit<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to record what you find in the natural spaces around you.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What will you do to get back to nature?

The foods we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink and the weather that makes our plant habitable all come from nature. Changing or removing one element of this web affects the entire life system and can produce negative consequences.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protecting biodiversity starts with knowledge and exploration. In addition to supporting education, the Government of Canada has also been taking direct actions to conserve our living species and ecosystems through a combination of research, monitoring, policies, regulation, enforcement, conservation areas and partnership activities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With Canada\u2019s federal, provincial and territorial governments taking steps to conserve biodiversity, you might be wondering what you can do to help. Listed below are a few things you and your family can do in your own backyard to support biodiversity:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Naturalize your lawn: Lawns are unnatural habitats. Instead, plant a variety of vegetation types and group them in clusters to attract insects, birds, butterflies, hummingbirds and other animals.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create a pond: Ponds provide habitat for a variety of species ranging from insects to frogs and fish. If space is a limiting factor, a bird bath will attract not only birds but pollinating insects and even chipmunks.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create other types of habitats: Supply wild food by planting perennials such as fruit and nut trees, nectar-producing flowers and berry bushes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Plant native species: Regardless of whether you have a flower, vegetable, rock or natural garden, native species are an important element of biodiversity which create a natural habitat for local wildlife.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compost: Adding compost to your garden will enrich your soil by encouraging micro-organisms and worms to thrive, improving soil drainage, increasing the soil&#8217;s ability to hold moisture, and providing nutrients for plant growth.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To learn more about Canada\u2019s Biodiversity Strategy or for additional ideas on how to get involved visit: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/biodivcanada.chm-cbd.net\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/biodivcanada.chm-cbd.net\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What additional measures have you taken learn about or conserve biodiversity?
