It's suspected these fins were coming from South America and were on their way to Asia.

Keep this in mind y’all. Although the class is over, the issue affecting us all isn’t 😔😔😔 #marenvs20

Love to see this!! Great steps to move forward. #marenvs20

There will be greater risk of flooding and inundation along the US coastlines as sea level rise accelerates. #marenvs20

What a great day in Australia! Only fitting for the MarineFest Today! We’ve learned in class how important sharks are to our ecosystem, and how calling for a mass killing is not a viable solution! #MarEnvs20

This is an awesome way to think about the future. Using high-level technology to feed people as well as combat climate change. Give this a read!!! #marenvs20

Very interesting read on how green policies are not always positive. Small businesses struggle to keep up with the progression of big corporations towards a green movement. #marenvs20

Australia is far behind in the use of electric cars. This is mainly due to the lack of strategy set by the government. #marenvs20

Exploitation of land is still a major issue, especially in WA. #marenvs20

It was so interesting to hear about so many different topics in class today! Here is the article I read which shows some arguments about plastic bag bans, such as how unlikely it is to be successful in the U.S. when only 9% of the U.S. recycles #marenvs20

Really interesting article that connects to my group project of rising sea levels. Marine Labs on the Water’s Edge Are Threatened by Climate Change https://t.co/OJppAjiDlF #marenvs20

[Griffin Halpern @HalpernGriffin]

Interesting read on how to gain public support for combating climate change. Crazy to think that there are plenty of people out there that still deny it. #marenvs20

'The fashion industry is second only to the oil industry in regard to the amount of damage it causes our planet.' Fast fashion is unsustainable and cannot continue #MarEnvS20 https://t.co/HVDjJjWMbp

It's cost a lot, but the ocean should be saved!

The world is changing at a rapid rate. This is a great read on human capacities to deal with climate change. #marenvs20

If you want some positive stories you should check out this article. e.g. Costa Rica with its economy still growing, was able to derive 98% of its electricity from renewable sources. #marenvs20

The fires don't just affect the forest. It affects the climate, the marine life, the wildlife. We see how everything in the environment is linked by common causes and effects (global warming, climate change, plastic waste, carbon emissions). #marenvs20

[Griffin Halpern @HalpernGriffin]

Another example of failure within our political systems. Interesting read.

Seen at the Taronga Zoo. Always choose MSC. Save our bluefin tuna! #marenvs20

Had so much fun as well! Highly recommend.
