Ocean RHS

Rogers High School Oceanography students attended the fourth biennial Ocean Literacy Summit on Friday, Nov. 2. They heard Dr. Robert Ballard speak about his recent explorations in the Mediterranean Sea.

Dr. Ballard greeted each Rogers student individually and expressed his appreciation of their attendance at the summit. Later, the group toured the Inner Space Center where Dr. Ballard bases his research expeditions and had the rare opportunity to see Dr. Ballard’s ROVs, which he uses in his deep water explorations including discovering the location of the Titanic.

Ocean Literacy

In 1988 Ted Danson said we had ten years to save the oceans; we were all going to pay the consequences, which would result in our extinction. In Jamuary 2006 Nobel Laureate Al Gore warned that we had only ten years left to save the planet. As of this writing 11/08/2012 its 135 degrees in Newport and the world has indeed heated out of control. Snow is a thing of the past, wolverines and pikas are extinct, and Manhattan has drowned. These kids only have a little over 3 years left to save the planet. Godspeed.
