Melvin Mosley+FollowThousands of Sea Creatures Wash Up DeadHave you seen those haunting pics from South Australia? Beaches are literally covered in dead fish and shellfish—over 9,000 animals gone, thanks to a toxic algal bloom called Karenia mikimotoi. Experts say it’s not just a local disaster; these blooms can wreck entire ecosystems for years. Rising ocean temps might be making things worse, and there aren’t enough experts to keep up. It’s a wake-up call for better marine protection and research! #Science #OceanCrisis #ClimateChange383289Share
Patrick Simmons+FollowGhost Nets Are Wrecking Our OceansDid you know abandoned fishing nets—aka ghost nets—are silently destroying Namibia’s marine life and hurting local fishers’ livelihoods? These nets don’t just trap sea creatures; they pollute the water, mess up food chains, and even bring invasive species to coral reefs. Researchers say it’s a bigger deal than most people realize, and they’re urging everyone to spread the word and push for action. The more we talk about it, the more likely real change will happen! #OceanCrisis #GhostNets #SaveOurSeas #Science70Share
Tamara Jones+FollowGray Whales Are Wasting Away—Here’s WhyGray whales are showing up shockingly skinny on their migration north, and researchers are freaking out. Not only are their ribs visible, but baby whales are almost nowhere to be found—just three calves spotted this year! Scientists say melting Arctic ice is wrecking their food supply, and it’s a major red flag for ocean health. If whales are struggling, the whole ecosystem is in trouble. Want to help? Cut down on single-use plastics, support clean energy, and get involved with local marine groups! #GrayWhales #OceanCrisis #ClimateChange #MarineLife #EcoAction #Science31Share
