    This question refers to the text "Why Exploring the Ocean Is Mankind's Next Giant Leap" by Philippe Cousteau.

    In this text, Cousteau explains the reasons why he believes the exploration of the ocean is a necessary and promising pursuit for humans. In lines 57-69, he provides an argument that justifies this opinion. He tells us that one benefit of this would be the fact that it would allow us to take better care of the ocean. He states that "research and exploration can go hand in glove with resource management and conservation." He also states that this is our duty, and an important mission, as "the oceans are the life support system of this planet, providing us with up to 70 percent of our oxygen, as well as a primary source of protein for billions of people, not to mention the regulation of our climate."
