Ocean Facts and Speculations
00:01:04
Speaker
talk about three interesting facts about the ocean. Did you know that there are approximately 20 million tons of gold under the ocean?
00:01:13
Speaker
That would be enough to give every person on Earth about nine pounds of gold. But before you become a treasure hunter, you must know the gold is so diluted that mining it would not be worth it.
00:01:25
Speaker
Ocean water contains approximately one gram of gold for every 100 million tons of water. I wish it were that easy. I know, right? just go diving and find some gold.
00:01:39
Speaker
And here's another fun fact. Did you know that only 20% of the world's oceans have been explored? That means 80% is still a mystery.
00:01:49
Speaker
It's probably full of undiscovered species, minerals, and secrets. Hopefully that means mermaids are real. Oh, that too. More money. There's the possibility that – or money. More treasure. Yeah.
00:02:06
Speaker
And mermaids. That'd be cool. yeah And finally, while trees get all the credit, oceans actually produce about 50% of the oxygen we breathe. This is mostly thanks to tiny plankton.
