It is so amazing to learn about such things in the ocean, from organisms that fight to survive each environmental change or challenge, including those of overfishing and catch. Learning about the sonar visuals of sound is so unique from each whale to a ship or plankton in the ocean to anemones. As well as how the oceans temperatures are changing and how oxygen is being immitted here in there and carbon that's sent out afterwards. This was enjoyable to listen to no less eye opening for those who love the ocean.

Absolutely awesome I followed it with amazement as it is subject that I'm very interested with since a very long time and wanted to add it to my learning to develop something far greater than my personal achievement. THANK YOU for making it available to me ,can't wait for more.

This course provided an excellent introduction to marine biology and the pressing conservation challenges our oceans face today. The Harvard instructors presented complex scientific concepts in an accessible way, making it easy to understand everything from marine ecosystems to the impacts of climate change on ocean life. I particularly appreciated the comprehensive coverage of both the biological aspects and the conservation strategies being implemented worldwide. The course effectively balanced scientific rigor with engaging storytelling about ocean life, making it both educational and inspiring. Highly recommended for anyone interested in marine science or environmental conservation.

The lesson “From Sea to Changing Sea” was really good and interesting. I learned how climate change is hurting the ocean and its animals. Dr. Pershing’s talk about the Gulf of Maine stood out to me. It made me care more about protecting the ocean.
Ashley McNarry

Very informative. I learned more about the negative effects of carbon dioxide in the ocean. I learned more about ocean acidification.
