Blue-Green Connection to Life on Earth

"A single kind of blue-green algae in the ocean ("Prochlorococcus") produces the oxygen in one of every five breaths we take"

~ "The World Is Blue: How Our Fate and the Ocean’s Are One"

~ The Fate of Small Species and the Oceans -- Sylvia Earle

"The Tiny Little Ones - Plankton"

"Ecosystems of the Sea"

Nearly all marine plants are single celled, photosynthetic plankton-algae

Marine plants produce over 50% percent of the oxygen in the atmosphere
