Did you know that nearly 8 million metric tons of plastic enter the ocean every year?

Here's how you can help

Taiji: A pod of bottlenose dolphins was driven into the cove today. This was the 4th drive of the season. Six dolphins were taken captive while the rest of the family was driven back out into the ocean. We will post more photos and full report later today. September 5, 2019

Great to see! #marenvs19

India is removing trash from oceans and seas 🇮🇳 https://t.co/L2F5i85yaW

[Rachel Fish(wo)man @rach_fishman]

Learning with visuals is the best way to keep people easily informed about current issues!!

[Tess Turner @turner_tess]

Can't wait to watch everyone's projects today and learn about all the topics! #marinefest #marenvs19

[Tess Turner @turner_tess]

Things like this help you visually understand these important issues #marenvs19

[Beyond Plastics @PlasticsBeyond]

Sharing again as there's really good info in this @NatGeo piece about the rise (and, hopefully, the fall) of bottled water by @laurajoparker https://t.co/eLUd8qGRah #refusesingleuse #singleuseplastic #plasticpollution #BreakFreeFromPlastic

Sneak peak at our Marine Festivsl film! Can you guess the topic? #marenvs19

[wavey. @splash193]

Lucky for us the plastic didn’t reach the ocean. Marine animals can mistake transparent plastic for food, entrapping themselves. #MarEnvS19

[Tess Turner @turner_tess]

@CebakRafina @gfm_downunder Yes! Did you know you can eat these, they don't taste great but they are edible

[Grace M @gfm_downunder]

Had a great time exploring the tide pools today. It’s amazing what you can find when you take a second to look closer🧐 #marenvs19

Baby #seals have a funky sense of rhythm, and are, according to lead scientist @AndreaRavignani "adorable" #ibac2019

[Tess Turner @turner_tess]

@lauren_marine1 Good tips! I'll definitely stop using glitter recklessly

[Tess Turner @turner_tess]

Wow!! Amazing

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

When haters go after your looks and differences, it means they have nowhere left to go. And then you know you’re winning!
I have Aspergers and that means I’m sometimes a bit different from the norm. And - given the right circumstances- being different is a superpower.

10,000 turtles and 50 North Atlantic right whales are entangled in fishing nets each year....love hearing about changes that are being made to help these marine animals! #MarEnvS19

[lavonne @lavonne87638483]

Great example of a marine animal adaptation! My best guess is that this creature must live in the epipelagic zone of the ocean since it uses a visual form of disguise. #marenvs19

[Tess Turner @turner_tess]

Throwback to when I did a beach clean up last year in Sri Lanka 🌊 protect the oceans #marenvs19

[Oceana @oceana]

You've heard of manatees, but what about dugongs?

[Tess Turner @turner_tess]

@splash193 @rach_fishman Always 🏊‍♀️
