Biodiversity in our oceans has more effect on our lives than one would expect. Many people don’t pay attention to how we treat our oceans and the effects it has. Not only plastic and pollution play a role in threatening the oceans, bycatch also plays a huge part.
Fishing can cause multiple problems in our oceans. Heavy fishing gear can damage the seafloor. Gears that drag destroy the ocean floor and kill sea life like sea coral, plankton and aquatic plants. Commercial fishing harms marine life. This type of fishing causes an imbalance in the food web. Because of this imbalance, we could lose essential fish like tuna, cod and silverfish. We could also lose animals like the sea turtle.
Without the ocean humans can go extinct. The ocean provides us with things we need to survive. We get 50% of our oxygen from the ocean. The seaweed and other aquatic plants provide us with this. The ocean also supplies us with freshwater without this many people all over the world will not have clean drinking water. These changes to the ocean could be irreversible. We need to bring more awareness to this before it’s too late. We must take care of our planet like it takes care of us.
Rayanne,
ReplyDeleteReally strong designs! For the first two, there may be too much distracting body copy. It is hard to tell without the content though so just a thought. The third design is really strong, just one suggestion The header may be easier to read if you put A at the top and switch it with sustainable.
Rayanne,
ReplyDeleteLoving the creativity on your third thumbnail. Your images and placement is really strong. Try to also incorporate the recycle symbol on the some where else, like in the corner of the boat are on the persons shirts. The message is clear and doesn't need as much though to get what is being conveyed.

@Jenna - instead of saying “loving the creativity” how can you express that this design is preferable, from a layout standpoint?
DeleteConstructive feedback will assist Rayanne with her final layout decision and designing. Thanks!
Rayanne - make sure to NOT write the outline in the first person (I / me / my / you / we / our...) As far as the designs go for the thumbnails, use the third option. Perhaps make the earth much bigger on the page - currently everything seems to be taking up the same visual amount of space. Having the idea of the ocean and the icons that represent different aspects of pollution is a great idea; it gives the viewer an instant idea of what your topic is viably saying. Nice!
