Every year on June 8, the world unites to celebrate World Oceans Day.
每年六月八日，全世界齊心慶祝世界海洋日。
First proposed by Canada at the 1992 Earth Summit and officially recognized by the United Nations in 2008, this day highlights our planet's most vital resource.
這個日子最早由加拿大於一九九二年的地球高峰會上提出」，並於二零零八年獲聯合國正式認可，彰顯了我們星球最至關重要的資源。
Covering over 70% of the Earth's surface, the ocean acts as our "lungs," producing at least 50% of the oxygen we breathe and playing a crucial role in regulating the global climate by absorbing carbon dioxide.
海洋覆蓋了地球七成以上的表面，宛如我們的「肺部」，產生了至少五成我們呼吸所需的氧氣，並透過吸收二氧化碳在調節全球氣候中扮演了關鍵角色。
Beyond its environmental function, the ocean supports the global economy and provides essential nutrition to over a billion people.
除了環境功能外，海洋更支撐著全球經濟，並為超過十億人提供了必需的營養。
However, our oceans are under immense pressure from plastic pollution, overfishing, and habitat destruction caused by rising temperatures and acidification.
然而，海洋正受到塑膠污染、過度捕撈以及溫度升高和酸化所致棲息地破壞所帶來的巨大壓力。
The primary mission of World Oceans Day is to move beyond mere awareness, encouraging individuals and governments to commit to collective stewardship.
世界海洋日的首要使命是不僅停留在意識提升，更要鼓勵個人與政府承擔集體管理的責任。
By aligning with UN Sustainable Development Goal 14, this day fosters global collaboration to protect marine ecosystems.
藉由符合聯合國永續發展目標第十四項，這個日子促進了全球合作以保護海洋生態系統。
Whether it is through reducing plastic waste or supporting sustainable fishing, every small action contributes to the health of our shared blue planet.
無論是減少塑膠廢棄物還是支持永續捕撈，每一個微小的行動都有助於我們共同藍色星球的健康。
As we celebrate, we are reminded that a healthy ocean is essential for a sustainable future for all.
在慶祝之際，我們被提醒著，健康的海洋對全人類的永續未來至關重要。
