In this article from the Washington Post, it points out the little amount left over the ocean that has not been touched or disturbed. Currently, only 13% of the oceans could be considered as a, "Wilderness". That means the other 87% of the ocean has been used for fishing, or shipping, or has been polluted. Only about 7% of the oceans is actually protected. More of the ocean should be protected because if there is 87% that could be controlled and fixed, all that water could become protected.https://newsela.com/read/climate-oceans-humans/id/45015
Dual-fuel vehicles
A recent study shows that dual- fuel vehicles are benefiting the population but, turns out they are costing the environment. While substituting gasoline for ethanol gases, it causes an increase of ultra fine particle matter, with a 30% increase of atmospheric concentration. The problem is that they are less then 50 nanometers in diameter. The nano particles are also not track or regulated by the environmental agencies. We inhale these gases everyday, inhaling ethanol. The most practical way to reduce greenhouse gases is using electric, hybrid and biofuel care. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/08/170828124546.htm
