In the given sentence ‘we’ is the subject and ‘cannot pump the ocean dry’ is the predicate.

EXPLANATION:

A subject in a sentence is its agent. A subject usually implies the main topic of the sentence and what the sentence is about. It talks about the main idea of the sentence. A predicate explains the subject. It gives more information about the agent and usually contains the object or the patient and the theme.  

Example: the dog barked loudly. Here the dog is the subject and barked loudly is the predicate. As cannot pump the ocean dry talks about ‘we’ hence it is the subject and we is the predicate.
