Travelling by sea

  is the most exciting means of travelling, of

  because it combines comfort and speed. But
  smaller ships are less comfortable and in stormy
  seas passengers feel unhappy, they get sea-sick
  and travelling by sea becomes a real torture for
  them.

  waste, tankers leak and spill oil, boaters throw
  trash overboard

  ocean is. Without the ocean, the Earth would be
