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
megangibson+FollowMicroplastics Found in Arctic Seals?!Arctic seals aren’t as safe as we thought—almost every seal researchers studied had microplastics in their stomachs. That “untouched” Arctic vibe? Total myth. Turns out, plastic pollution is everywhere, and it’s not just hurting animals; it’s bad for us too. The wildest part? Even the top predators are eating plastic because it’s already in their food. If you needed another reason to ditch single-use plastics and rethink your wardrobe, this is it! #PlasticPollution #ArcticWildlife #EcoFriendly #Microplastics #SaveOurSeas #Science90Share
