How Organizations Utilize this Type of Information

Many organizations use information such as dissolved oxygen levels and primary, net, and gross productivity to help them make informed decisions. Companies must ensure that their activities are not harming the environment to such a degree that communities are dying. Organizations such as Green Peace, Clean Water Action, Living Ocean, and many more and working hard to ensure that the environment will not be killed by human impact. In particular, companies that work with water resources have to be very concerned with the quality of water. Poland Springs, for example, must do their best to sell water that is not contaminated to their customers. Local companies dealing with tap water must also ensure that water is clean. In addition to this companies that sell fish or any other type of food that lives or grows in aquatic environments must also pay careful attention to the health of an ecosystem. Without proper information, informed decisions will not be possible and through this the puplic may suffer. For example, if we were to drink water that came from unhealthy sources we may become sick. And if stores depend on a certain area to harvest fish, they must be concerned with whether or not an environment will be able to continue to support a species. For these reasons, whether we are aware of it or not, the health of aquatic communities affects all of us.
