So exciting to see Canada releasing a ban on single use plastics. As learned in class, plastics are harmful to marine life, our oceans and even ourselves. #marenvs20

[CBC News Alerts @CBCAlerts]

Environment Canada to release data today supporting ban on most single-use plastics. In 2016, 3.3 million tonnes of plastic ended up in the trash in Canada - 12 times the amount of plastic that was recycled. https://t.co/o75QAg3uey

Once again I've witnessed the tragedy of plankton eating microplastics. This is the bottom of the food chain. We have no idea what the long-term effects are for the marine environment or ultimately, human health @zeiss_micro

Marine fest has been so fun! I love watching all the videos #marenvs20

https://t.co/vhF8cUoO58 After our field trip today, I was researching about snails and came across this article about the great African snail. It is becoming a threat to Australian agriculture. #marenvs20

It was really interesting to learn about how without vegetation sand dunes would be more likely to spread apart and further into the land on our field trip today. I really enjoyed the hands on experience we get in this class! #marenvs20

There is no strong, resilient Australia without deep cuts to greenhouse gas emissions.

261 scientists have signed an open letter calling on our country’s leaders and policymakers to develop science-informed policies to combat human-caused #ClimateChange. https://t.co/ffWZmFNOo8

@RebeccaGoetz5 So in!

Seabirds are affected by the heat warming due to climate change. It is becoming more difficult for them to hunt as fish are dying or moving to colder waters https://t.co/YyRE1ps6j6

This was really cool to read some the positive stories among all the negative ones. Thanks for sharing #marenvs20

[AP @andy_premium]

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

Sustainability is reshaping finance and capitalism, giving business leaders the historic opportunity to ward off environmental catastrophe. #Marenvs20

@Danielle_cohen6 Toronto,hbu? Not too much marine life around there though great to learn hands on in this class

[danielle Bazzocchi @danielleBazzoc1]

I too am from Canada and I think it’s cool to see our country taking action!

[Danielle Cohen @Danielle_cohen6]

Now that plastic straws are banned, it's natural that Vancouver takes the next step at reducing the number of single-use plastics! #marenvs20

B.C. preps packaging changes that could include ban on plastic bags https://t.co/dGFONCBXlE

[danielle Bazzocchi @danielleBazzoc1]

Today in class we learned about the difference on how terrestrials and marine animals feed. Large terrestrial animals feed on large animals whereas large marine animals feed on small marine life (exception anteater) #marenvs20

[Danielle Cohen @Danielle_cohen6]

Learning about the importance of sustainable fishing practices made me wonder what's being done in Vancouver. Glad to see that there is a free and easy to use app that educates the public! #marenvs20

Sustainable Seafood -- there's an iPhone App for that https://t.co/tOiCubllhr

When I went food shopping with my friend
@danielleBazzoc1, I made sure she bought Skipjack tuna that came from a sustainable stock and was properly labeled! #marenvs20

[danielle Bazzocchi @danielleBazzoc1]

We made sure to get skipjack and yellowfin. Extra bonus that they used a FAD free fishing method to reduce bycatch. #marenvs20

Storm Brendan causes mass escape of farmed salmon in Hebridean waters. High risk for the native marine environment & wildlife. How do you clean up?

Check out these dos and don’ts on how to keep ourselves and marine wildlife safe! #marenvs20

[PADI @PADI]

Each time we visit the marine environment, we have the wonderful opportunity to encounter wildlife. However, the unfortunate potential to harm our marine life and resources exists with every visit. https://t.co/WNjyGIxOQq

[danielle Bazzocchi @danielleBazzoc1]

did you know dolphins sleep with only half of their brain and with one eye open so they can watch for predators and other threats? #marenvs20
