🔬, According to this article, it's the plastic we can't see any more, (the microplastics), that we should be most worried about. (Oh, and where do those microplastics originate?) 😨

This little #turtle nugget completed its 3 weeks in our telemetry program. Not only did it manage to dodge all the predators, but it grew like crazy, a full 60% increase in mass and 6.5mm in shell length. Live long and prosper little guy. #Research #TinyTurtles #1MillionTurtles

They are finally hatching! These #TinyTurtles will get even tinier transmitters so that we can study their movements, habitat use, and survival. #Turtles #Research #1MillionTurtles.

🍫 ♻️🪱 Great news from Mars Wrigley. 👏👏👏
Once existing stock has been sold, all future Mars Bars, Snickers & Milky Way will be packaged in new paper-based packaging that can be recycled or composted. Even better they are sharing the technology.

Eastern longneck #turtles certainly live up to their name. Babies like this little tyke have such disproportionate heads/necks that they can't tuck fully into their shells, so they rely on quick escapes & a bright flash of orange. Adults switch strategies & tuck in super tightly

👏👏👏 Well done to Rebecca on her Master's presentation on this important topic. Her work as part of the @BlueCarbonLab team in and around Swan Bay is very exciting.

Studies undertaken by @Deakin's @BlueCarbonLab on some of our dam sites in NE Vic and NSW reveal that dam enhancement leads to reduced methane #emissions. This is really exciting new work - freshly published in @GlobalChangeBio.
