Today June 9th 2022 is coral triangle day. This observance is an international observance by the UN and endeavors to bring attention to the health and wealth of the coral system in the seas around the planet. The element of food security is a fundamental part of the day and the keeping of the environment at its base the ocean is also fundamental.

Today is also known as dark and stormy day. Dark and stormy day takes its name from a rum and a ginger beer and the observations of the pirate at the coloration of the clouds when he was drinking. We hope that he doesn’t have the last word on the disposition of this day and its remedies. And rather would hope for more civil thought going into the observance of our life on this planet, on this day, and forevermore.

editor’s note: Coral triangle day is tied to the observance of June 8th, world oceans day:

TGIF- Happy World Ocean Day:

World Oceans Day:

Today is World Oceans day there theme this year is plastic pollution.

 

For world oceans day and beyond, we think the use of plastic straws can be a flash point for action in care for our oceans. By this we mean that its something everyone can be involved in:

Some points:

  • Secure loose used straws when used.
  • Don’t use them when you don’t have to.
  • Reuse your sandwich bag and collect them for personal  use in purse or pocket.
  • Carry a straw for use, ( rinsed)
  • Use your own common sense and proprietary.

On this Day: June 8th 1992
World Oceans Day begins to be unofficially observed, continues until UN sanction in 2008.
