Animated video series to raise awareness about oceans

The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) has partnered with cartoonist Jim Toomey – of Sherman’s Lagoon fame – in developing a series of two-minute videos intended to raise awareness of the importance of oceans and the coastal environment. The videos use animation and humor to explain in clear and simple language the role oceans play in our lives and our very survival.

Here's a link to the nine-part video series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLh5PISEFeNIOFZ-JY7URegN6NT-LEKaH-
