Plastic outweighs plankton 2:1 in our oceans. More plastic = less food for fish in our oceans. Fish are already disappearing due to overfishing & other forms of pollution: https://t.co/5vER2XfzlX #SaveOurOcean#BeatPlasticPollution#PlayItOut
Our oceans are filling up with plastic at a staggering rate. Last year, nearly 1 million runners joined #RunFortheOceans to act against this growing problem. Lace up to join us โ learn more at https://t.co/QJJVvLibFa
Tragic stories of marine animals dying as a result of plastic pollution are becoming more and more frequent and will continue unless we take action๐ฐ. We urgently need a global agreement to #StopPlasticPollution in our oceans. Sign the petition: https://t.co/OF5fqwYt9c
The toxins that plastics leach into seawater are severely affecting the bacteria that provides perhaps 20 percent of Earth's oxygen. That's . . not good. https://t.co/hsAIa3yZGA
Now in its third year, #RunForTheOceans is calling on runners worldwide to lace up and run to reduce marine plastic pollution #sponsored@adidasrunning https://t.co/ltynKpcmR8
#39canimals About 96% of the elephants lives are spent in chains and cages where 11 months a year theyโre traveling in the same cage... check out https://t.co/bjHtM8CHai for more numbers of circus animals
We need to realize how horrific this problem is!! Yes, we have taken some steps such as switching from plastic to metal straws, but that isn't enough. Humans collectively to need to solve this problem. #39canimals
Climate change damages forests by drying out tropical rainforests and increasing fire damage. This is already harming the biodiversity located in forests eliminating many important species. #39canimals

In the documentary "Blackfish," I learned that orcas live longer in the wild compared to when they're held captive. In captivity their lifespan is up to 35 years and in the wild, they have the lifespan of humans: about 75 years. #39canimals
Habitat loss due to deforestation is a major issue for non-human primates and other animals that live in the forest; only 30% of the world consist of forest. #39canimals https://t.co/5E3FiKuL1Q
I think this statement can be applied in so many different ways. Itโs important to remind people that there are no differences among our own species as well. Weโre a lot more genetically related to the world than we think. #39canimals
Orca's are not meant to be held captive in areas that provide smaller than average living environments. Overtime, just considering the orca population in marine parks, about 91% of their population has died. There needs to be an end to this mistreatment and hostility

"Just because we are capable of living with dolphins doesn't mean that dolphins are capable of experiencing and dealing with life the same way we do." Here's an article about a dolphin named Peter who took his own life due to heartbreak. #39canimals https://t.co/EoLO3V7fvP
#WhatIlearnedin39C was that despite the already-existing noises in the ocean, HUMANS have made it significantly louder. Here's a short 3-minute video briefing over the topic! #39canimals https://t.co/cxNcMQORbo
With the understanding and knowledge that these bears are vastly intelligent complex beings, it is important for use to be aware of our treatment and actions affecting these bears. Climate change is real!!! https://t.co/Wiqi7NpC0F #39canimals
