Introduction:
A Hong Kong-born, blue-whales-loving scientist, Chen Chong, who studied deep-sea biology in Japan, and Kiana, a marine microbiologist in Hawaii, received sponsorship letters from mineral oil energy developers asking them to refuse to list the blue whales as the dying species on the red list in exchange for the smooth carrying out of the oil companies' drilling projects. What will be the outcome of the negotiations between the two scientists gathered at the seaside today? Would you choose oil development or marine ecology protection?
You will learn the knowledge about the ocean, biodiversity, and mineral energy.
