[Jeffrey Morgan]

*2nd Annual World Oceans Day Event is Coming to Chatham!*



The ocean harbors 99% of all living space on Earth, yet we have barely
explored its beauty. On Saturday, June 8th OceanProtection Advocacy Kids,
Inc. <http://www.oapkedu.org> (OPAK) invites you to explore the world of
underwater noise. Come find out what life sounds like beneath the waves and
discover a symphony you never knew existed!



For OPAK’s "One Ocean, One Cape Cod: A Marine Celebration" event in honor
of World Oceans Day they will be screening the Emmy Award Winning
Documentary:  *Sonic Sea*
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T-jabL64UZE>(synopsis

Vice President of Conservation and Animal Welfare at IFAW, who is actually
in the film. Light refreshments and raffle items from Lush Cosmetics, the
Hyannis Whale Watcher Cruises and Cape Clasp will be available for purchase
before the screening starts.

*Sonic Sea* is a 60-minute documentary about the impact of industrial and
military ocean noise on whales and other marine life. It tells the story of
a former US Navy officer who solved a tragic mystery and changed forever
the way we understand our impact on the ocean. The film is narrated by
Rachel McAdams and features Sting, in addition to the renowned ocean
experts Dr. Sylvia Earle, Dr. Paul Spong, Dr. Christopher Clark and
Jean-Michel Cousteau. Sonic Sea was produced by the Natural Resources
Defense Council (NRDC) and Imaginary Forces in association with the
International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) and Diamond Docs.
