On this #WorldWildlifeDay we are celebrating ALL marine diversity from the plankton to the sharks and the research carried out on them here at the Marine Biological Association.
"Kelp forests are a nursery for juvenile fish and crustaceans, such as crab and lobster. They provide spawning grounds for many species of fish, and form the “base of the food web" https://t.co/FsbUK57xpe

Fabulous, Greta Thunberg herself speaking out against the plastics factory planning in Skibbereen and protecting Bantry Bay's kelp forests! Keep up the great work!
Really proud to see our @ITS_Archaeology team and venerable visitors, with leader Dr. Fiona Beglane #digdisert bringing us treasures from the Donegal days of St. Columcille. Great TV clips @TG4TV Ar fheabhas!
@bps_algae Great satellite image showing the broad distribution of one of my favourite plankton groups around the UK. Thanks for inspiring us all @NEODAAS!
DONATIONS NEEDED FOR LEGAL EXPENSES!
We're asking ALL our supporters to please contribute whatever amount you can - however small - to our new crowdfunding effort. We aim to raise €40,000 for the legal battle against the destruction of our kelp forests

Only 3% of the #oceans are free from human pressure (by 2014)
In #marine systems, fishing has had the most impact on #biodiversity in the past 50 years.
