🌊🌿 On this #WorldOceansDay, let's address a common misconception about ocean plastic pollution. While straws are often highlighted, did you know that 50% of ocean plastic actually comes from fishing nets? 🐠🦈 These "ghost nets" continue to harm marine life long after they've been discarded. By raising awareness and supporting sustainable fishing practices, we can make a real difference in protecting our oceans. 🌏💙 Join us in advocating for cleaner seas and healthier marine ecosystems. Together, we can turn the tide on ocean plastic pollution. 🌊🌟 #OceanConservation #EndPlasticPollution #SustainableFishing #SaveOurSeas #ProtectMarineLife

🐳 The Sound of a Whale Expressing Gratitude! 🐋 Whales are remarkable creatures known for their intelligence, social behaviour, and even their ability to express gratitude toward humans. Just like in this video, there have been heartwarming instances where whales, after being helped by us humans, have displayed behaviours that seem to show appreciation and gratitude. These acts include gentle nudges, playful movements, or swimming close to their rescuers, almost as if they are saying thank you. While we can't know for certain what goes on in their minds, these gestures remind us of the deep connection we share with these majestic beings, highlighting the emotional capacity that exists within the animal kingdom. Thankfully, these days, more is being done to clean up the pollution we have caused to their environment. 👉 Let us know your thoughts in the comments below. 👇 Grateful to Marcus Parade, 🌞💡✅ MBA for sharing such an impressive clip about these amazing mamals.

Do you know that dolphins, fish, sharks, turtles, seabirds and crabs are vulnerable to harm from plastic debris in the ocean? Additionally, animals also mistake small plastic debris for food or become entangled in or strangled by plastic bags and discarded fishing nets. This is why @keeptheoceancleaninitiative is investing heavily to educate maritime stakeholders and coastal communities on the dangers of marine pollution. Together we can save our ocean and marine lives..

Our turtles are facing a grave threat due to rampant marine pollution. As guardians of our oceans, it's crucial for us to take immediate action to protect these majestic creatures. Marine pollution, fueled by human activities such as plastic waste, oil spills, and chemical runoff, is devastating turtle populations worldwide. From entanglement in discarded fishing gear to ingestion of plastic debris, turtles are suffering immensely. Simple actions like reducing single-use plastics, participating in beach clean-ups, and supporting organizations dedicated to marine conservation can make a significant difference. Let's join forces to safeguard the future of turtles and preserve the health of our oceans for generations to come. #WorkingForABetterTomorrow! #SaveTheTurtles #OceanConservation #StopMarinePollution #oceanplastic #plasticpollution #plasticfree #zerowaste #ocean #sustainability #plasticocean #savetheplanet #plastic #plasticfreeoceans #environment #singleuseplastic #oceanpollution #climatechange #plasticwaste #oceancleanup #saynotoplastic #saveouroceans #plasticpollutes
