Poster No. 51
I believe you know Poseidon, the God of the Sea in Greek
mythology.
The Earth is getting hotter every year.
This global warming causes the sea level rise and climate change.
Metaphorically, this change is making Poseidon angry.
Sea-borne typhoons are stronger than before.

The Library helps the general public to understand better about
the ocean.
Librarians at the Ocean Science Library create various
ocean knowledge contents and publish series of books.

We donate these books to
schools as a part of a
national campaign called
'Donation for Education.'

classes at local schools

conserve the ocean and
to become friend
with Poseidon.
