Mass bleaching of #coralreefs since Feb 2023 is now the most extensive on record, says @NOAA.
Leaders meeting at #COP16Colombia must step up efforts to address the linked crises of nature loss and climate change. #ActForNature #ForTheOcean

[WWF @WWF]

Temperatures in the Arctic have risen almost three times faster than the global average.🌡

This is disrupting ocean ecosystems and the livelihoods of many people.

Believe it or not, tuna poop is crucial for our ocean’s health 🐟💩

Like how fertiliser makes plants grow, tuna helps plankton grow in our ocean, which produces oxygen and absorbs CO2 emissions.

RT if you agree we must do more to restore our ocean and planet! 🌍

Climate change, overfishing, & plastic pollution wreak havoc on our ocean. Now, another threat looms: #DeepSeaMining.

Together, we can stop this threat before it’s too late.

RT to urge governments to stop the irreversible damage of the deep sea now! #ThinkDeeply

As a proud conservative, I’ve always put America’s Democracy and our Constitution above all else.  

And today, as a proud conservative, I am endorsing @JoeBiden for reelection!

💥 New Copernicus report shows May 2024 was the 12th consecutive month with record-high temps
💥 New WMO report warns global temperatures are likely to exceed 1.5C in the next 5 years

As we approach #WorldOceansDay, remember extreme heat isn't just a problem on land. #ForCoral

You’re gonna want to watch this new Biden ad through to the end. Trust me.

🚨 Urgent action is needed as soaring temperatures pose an extreme risk to the ocean we depend on and people across the globe.

Climate change is undeniable; immediate action is critical if we want to protect the future of the Great Barrier Reef.

New ad just dropped 🔥

[WWF International media team @wwf_media]

#BREAKING: The Great Barrier Reef is facing its fifth coral bleaching crisis in just eight years, with some corals already lost.

This is happening in areas previously untouched by extreme temperatures.

Urgent action is needed as high temperatures threaten people and nature. The reef's health is critical for those dependent on it for livelihoods, and the diverse ecosystem it supports.

It's a baby shark 😍🦈

Video may have captured the first-ever sighting of a newborn great white shark!

Solving the mystery of where these sharks give birth can improve efforts to protect them.

Great news! Mexico 🇲🇽 is the latest country to join the tide of opposition to destructive #DeepSeabedMining!

A global moratorium on this destructive industry is urgently needed.

🙌🏽This is a step in the right direction.

Who’s afraid of the deep? Not us! 🐙

We 💙 the deep sea. It’s home to fascinating wildlife and stores carbon to help keep our climate in balance.

But some see only 💰💰💰.

[WWF @WWF]

The deep sea is a place of magic & mystery🌟

But it faces a looming threat: #DeepSeabedMining

This could alter our #BluePlanet. Because what happens in the depths comes to the surface.

🐙The Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a collection of marine debris that is TWICE the size of France, spans the ocean from North America to Japan😟

RT if you agree we must turn the tide on ocean #pollution!

[Gretchen Lyons @gretchenlyons]

I can't think of a worse example of corporate #Gaslighting than mining companies trying to convince gov'ts that we can only solve the #ClimateCrisis by trashing our ocean.
Don't buy that 💩 #ThinkDeeply #DefendTheDeep
