„Blue Marble, Pale Blue Dot, Blue Planet… it seems obvious: our Earth is, above all, blue. With 70.8% of its surface covered by water, this water represents only a millionth of the mass of the observable universe. Seen this way, the planet almost seems to be showing us its back, so accustomed are we to seeing it from the “continent” side, populated by billions of humans. Here, at most, only a few tens of millions of humans, but plenty of water, forming part of the vast global ocean—a complex machinery that enables life on Earth in countless ways. This is the portrait of a blue planet.“

I’d love to visit Oceania one day. As someone who lives in the mountains, I can’t fathom the idea of being surrounded by endless oceans.

The Caspian sea is hardly considered a lake. It’s salinity it’s brackish. It doesn’t belong in regards to any of the other freshwater lakes at all
