Reread lines 35-44. What impact on his argument does the author have by mentioning his famous sea-exploring father and grandfather?
You may think I’m doing my grandfather Jacques Yves-
Cousteau and my father Philippe a disservice when I say
we’ve only dipped our toes in the water when it comes to
ocean exploration. After all, my grandfather co-invented
the modern SCUBA system and “The Undersea World of
Jacques Cousteau” introduced generations to the wonders of
the ocean. In the decades since, we’ve only explored about
10 percent of the ocean—an essential resource and complex
environment that literally supports life as we know it, life
on earth.
