WEBVTT FILE 1 00:00:10.510 --> 00:00:11.895 The ocean. 2 00:00:11.895 --> 00:00:16.867 99% of the Earth’s living space the atmosphere. 3 00:00:16.867 --> 00:00:23.674 nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and more. 4 00:00:23.674 --> 00:00:28.996 At the top of the ocean, trillions of microscopic algae. 5 00:00:28.996 --> 00:00:30.697 Phytoplankton. 6 00:00:30.697 --> 00:00:34.301 Different shapes, different sizes, different roles 7 00:00:34.301 --> 00:00:36.887 in the web of life. 8 00:00:36.887 --> 00:00:42.442 Like land plants, phytoplankton need carbon dioxide to build 9 00:00:42.442 --> 00:00:44.161 cellular material. 10 00:00:44.161 --> 00:00:49.349 They also give off oxygen, so much oxygen that one of every 11 00:00:49.349 --> 00:00:55.205 two breaths you take uses oxygen produced by phytoplankton. 12 00:00:55.205 --> 00:00:58.892 But to understand how the ocean and atmosphere interact, and 13 00:00:58.892 --> 00:01:02.396 what that means in terms of global climate change– you need 14 00:01:02.396 --> 00:01:04.915 to look down, from space. 15 00:01:04.915 --> 00:01:08.468 That’s PACE. 16 00:01:08.468 --> 00:01:13.473 And with it, we’ll transform how we see the world.
