Indira Brook, the latest guest on the Wo(men) Mind the Water Artivist Series podcast, is a manager at Roatán Marine Park. The marine park is a non-profit dedicated to the protection of the Caribbean island located about 40 miles off the northern coast of Honduras. Indira's work for the Roatán Marine Park involves working with people to protect coral reefs, mangroves and other marine species. Roatán's coral reefs are second only in size to Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Indira is currently working with others to institute an island-wide ban of sunscreens containing petrochemicals. Coral bleaching and deformity in the development of fish are attributable to the petrochemicals in sunscreen. ( https://womenmindthewater.com/featured-guests)

We catch up with Adam Farhan, the Director of environmental watchdog RimbaWatch, for updates on some of the research and analysis they have been focussing on over the last few months. First, we look back at the State of the Malaysian Rainforest 2024 report which was released back in May, which found that up to 3.2 million hectares of Malaysian rainforests are at risk – an area nearly the size of Pahang. Then, we turn our attention to two recent reports released by RimbaWatch, first on the proposed oil and gas project in the Tun Mustapha Marine Park (TMP) which is sparking serious environmental and human rights concerns, and finally we look at the Balingian coal mine over in Sarawak, and the climate, biodiversity and transparency-related issues that have been raised in connection with the project.Image credits: Shutterstock, WWF Malaysia/Eric MadejaSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Recfishwest CEO Dr Andrew Roland has lashed the State government south coast marine park that will see imposed no-fishing zones feature from Bremer Bay to Cocklebiddy. Dr Roland told Oliver Peterson on Perth Live the selected locations for the marine parks have simply voided any thought to how it will affect locals.  “Clearly the local input has been ignored in some of these areas and it's important that we really need the minister to now listen to genuine consultation and take onboard the local views.” “This marine park has been planned out of Perth and we think the planners are out of touch with the local community,” Dr Roland said. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It is said that it takes a village to raise a child. It takes an entire community of people to provide by setting up resources so that those who are needy can benefit. The returns of doing that are tremendous and it is the gift that keeps on giving. When people do well, it reinforces the strength of families, and helps establish healthy generations going forward. But in order for that to happen it take the creation of an innovative and idealistic visionary person. Baila Sebrow, producer and host of The Definitive Rap interviewed Shea Rubenstein, the co founder and executive Vice president of the JCC of Marine Park since its founding in 2008, and co founder of JCON since 2015. He works to bring the community together, helping create opportunities for small business and individuals. The JCC and JCON serves the 5 boros of NY. Shea shared what he envisioned before he founded JCCMP, and he explained the types of services the organization offers. He went into details as to whom they service, and who can benefit from the organization. Shea talked about the huge summit for JCON, and about industries hiring people who have achieved certificates for programs over those who have college degrees, as well as whether artificial intelligence will replace human intelligence. The interview concluded with Shea's description of the upcoming conference for real estate professionals.  *Listen this interview*

A 16-unit building built on a formerly vacant lot could bring a few dozen new neighbors who want to ride on bike paths, swing on swing sets and flush toilets as they please. “Santa Monica collects Council authorized fees from developments to offset increased demands on public improvements, public services, and community amenities, including child care, transportation, parks, affordable housing, and water conservation,” according to information from city staff. “The City has also used these funds to meet the City's match requirement when seeking grant funding that further offsets costs for City projects.” The fees are gathered in line with a 1987 state law that outlines how such fees can be collected. On Tuesday, Santa Monica City Council will receive a report on the latest fees gathered for development in fiscal year 2021-22. In that year, which went from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022, the City of Santa Monica collected a little more than $5 million in such fees. In that time, developers chipped in $676,866 toward the Childcare Linkage Fee, for commercial projects over 7,500 square feet and multi-family residential projects. The fund, which ended the fiscal year with a balance of $769,644, did not make any expenditures last year. The Transportation Impact Fee, which is “collected on eligible new development and changes in land use that result in increased trip generation,” is intended to fund transportation infrastructure improvements like crosswalks, traffic signals and bike facilities. Last year, this fund collected $1.7 million, which together with interest ended in a final fund balance of $11.4 million. The fund also expended $929,000 on various pedestrian and bicycle improvements like multimodal signal detection, the modification of the intersection of Ocean Avenue and the California Incline and other enhancements. Next year, the City expects to spend $4.1 million on the annual repaving project; the year after, another $3.2 million will be spent on planning/construction of various protected bikeways. The Parks and Recreation Development Impact Fee, which amounted to $1.9 million last year, is collected from new residential and commercial development. Last year, the fund spent about $944,000 and ended with a final balance of $4 million. Money spent in 2021-22 went to improvements at Marine Park, plus the removal and re-landscaping of the petanque courts in Palisades Park. In addition, Beach Park #1 got new picnic tables and Reed Park's tennis courts were resurfaced with money from the fund. Santa Monica received another $742,931 (plus $2,719 in interest) toward the Affordable Housing Commercial Linkage (AHCL) Fee. The AHCL was founded at the start of FY 2015-16 with its stated goal “to contribute to the creation of affordable housing production and preservation to offset the additional need for affordable housing generated by new

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - “A lot of the places people want to go and visit are either down a beach access or they are a park. We've got large areas of unfragmented forest in Ha'thayim or Von Dominic Park. Mansons Landing Provincial Park is a really bio diverse lagoon full of marine life. Those parks together make up quite a big parcel of land that's set aside for conservation and for nature to thrive. There's no development pressure, that's really important. We have those permanent resources protected, and obviously there's a lot of really interesting ecosystems in them too,” explained Helen Hall, Executive Director of the Friends of Cortes Island (FOCI). “It's just a wonderful collection of fantastic places that we've got protected on this island, and I think we should celebrate that. The parks are there, not just for nature, but they're also there for people to enjoy and learn about nature. They're very popular on Cortes.” FOCI's involvement began about 20 years ago, before there was a Strathcona Regional District (SRD). Hall is not sure whether FOCI approached the Comox-Stathcona Regional District, or they approached FOCI, but the the society has been maintaining Kw'as Park since then. Their next maintenance contract was for Carrington Bay Park. We were managing those two parks for a number of years. Then, shortly after the SRD was created in 2008, they were entrusted with the beach accesses to: Gnat Beach access, in Squirrel Cove, Moon Park, near Hollyhock Beach. Seascape Park, at the end of Seascape Road Hayes Park, at the end of Hayes Road. Three or four years ago, FOCI took on Siskin Forest Park and Trails, the and the new Whales Rest Park (which everyone used to know as the park down by the ferry) and Whaletown Commons. “So we've got quite a big collection. The only one of the regional parks that we are not looking after is Hanks Beach. Friends of Cortes actually maintains, I think it's nine regional parks and trails,” said Hall. They also look after Mansons Landing Provincial Park, Smelt Bay Provincial Park and Háthayim Marine Park [a.k.a. Von Donop Marine Park] in the north of the island. “We've had a maintenance contract with the SRD for quite a number of years now, where Ryan Harvey and Alex Bernier will go out every month. They walk the trails, clear any trees have fallen, pick up any garbage that's been dropped and basically keep the parks in really good shape. They're doing that under contract with us and that's a year round job. so they're out walking every trail every month, which is quite phenomenal really. There's a lot of trails,” said Hall. “The other thing we've done is partnered with BC Parks at down at Manson's Spit/Manson's Lagoon, and we've done a number of things down there. We're trying to get the Broom out of the spit, particularly out of what's called the coastal sand ecosystem, which is that sort of grassy looking ecosystem that grows along the beach. It is actually quite rare. We tried to get the broom out of that so that the plants there can flourish. We've been doing that with volunteers. We installed a new sign, which was celebrating all the marine life in the lagoon and informing people how to take care of it and not tread on things and not to take things away. So we had a little education piece there as well.”

Ladies and Gents....... we need your help to restore recreational fishing in the Great Sandy Straits!  The long awaited Draft of the Great Sandy Marine Park Rezoning is now available for public comment - and it is exceptionally good news for anglers.  When implemented, the proposed changes will address long standing anomalies in the GSMP that have impacted the conservation values and the quality of recreational fishing in the park for decades.  Even better, there is a final opportunity to improve the outcomes for anglers and conservationists alike by tweaking a couple of the proposed changes.  In this interview Fraser Coast Fishing Alliance Chair Scotto Mitchell walks us through the changes and shares the final tweaks that the FCFA advocates. We urge all sport fishers, who fish the Sandy Straits regularly or just visit occassionally to complete this survey.  Please listen to this interview and if you agree with the changes that Scotto suggests, please let the powers that be know. And if if you have other thoughts and ideas then obviously feel free to voice those too! For links and tips for completing the survey please visit https://doclures.com/great-sandy-marine-park

On the 23rd of September 2022, the Queensland Government opened up public submissions for the Great Sandy Straight Marine Park Zoning Plan. This is huge and it affects all of us... Yes, all of us.  On this show we break down the significance of this zoning plan, we also run through the online submission process, fake news already spread and also why its important to all recreational fishers and those involved in the recreational fishing industry.  By removing gill netting from this environmentally significant world heritage listed area, it will bring the Sandy Straights in line with every other Marine Park worldwide and will no longer be the only marine park that allows commercial gill netting in a conservation zone.  Please give this a listen.

NPR science correspondent Lauren Sommer joins Short Wave host Emily Kwong to talk about a team of researchers who were the first to document a pack of orcas attacking a blue whale. Their work shows that killer whales, while stars in marine parks and movies, are also the ocean's top-- and often viscous-- predators. Humans' complex relationship with them may say more about humans than about the orcas.

The woman who allegedly told three Jewish kids “Hitler should have killed you all” before spitting on an 8-year-old boy in Brooklyn has been arrested, cops said Friday. Suspect Christina Darling, a 21-year-old student at St. Francis College in Brooklyn, was busted Friday morning and charged with aggravated harassment and menacing, both as hate crimes, and acting in a manner injurious to a child, NYPD hate crimes said. Darling is accused of storming up to the boy, who was with two other kids, around 12:30 p.m. Jan. 14 on Avenue P near Coleman Street in Marine Park, about five blocks from her home, police said. She snarled at the kids, “Hitler should have killed you all. I'll kill you and know where you live,” cops said. Footage released by the NYPD on Tuesday shows Christina standing directly in front of the kids as she spat on the boy, cops said. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Australia is one of the most biologically diverse countries in the world but has one of the highest extinction rates in the world. Australia has signed up to the global target of protecting 30 per cent of the world's land and oceans by 2030 but has made no national commitment towards achieving the goal.

The leaders say a lack of proper housing is really affecting the growth and survival of their communities.

Just to be clear, to set your expectations for this show, This show with recorded with mystery guest and Central Queensland resident Josh Radloff was about as off the cuff as you can get... You are about to be a fly on the wall of a conversation between 3 mates who have similar interests. So please don't be surprised to hear tales of Sewer Tuskies ( Tilapia), Carp, Politics surrounding the Great Sandy Marine Park, Steven Segal, seasonal goals coming into spring and of course the true origins of Tenkara. Some of the conversation has been redacted to protect the innocent, but what's left in is still thought provoking, silly and hopefully inspiring in some ways. This is an easy listening show that is best listened too over a long drive (without little ears) or while learning a new fly at the vice. And if you want a treat, shazam that last song to see one of the most spun out film clips you will see. The Intermediate Line Podcast is proudly presented by Beast Brushes and Manic Tackle Project

A major new environmental plan for the Hauraki Gulf is being cautiously supported on all sides. The government has announced protection zones which will prohibit fishing, as well as a severe restriction on bottom trawling for commercial operators. Jordan Bond reports.

Jon has almost 60 decades of experience, and completed over one hundred sixty planning and design projects for eighty-two zoos, aquariums, botanical gardens, theme parks, wildlife sanctuaries and national parks in thirteen nations on six continents.Jon shares with us about how fighting elephants at Boston Zoo sparked his thesis idea which would be on Artificial Habitats for Captive Animals. After receiving his undergraduate degree and his master's degree, it still took Jon 7 years before getting his first project. Jon's first project was working with Jones & Jones in Seattle, between 1973 – 1983. Together they invented the landscape immersion design at Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle with the idea being ‘back to nature'.Jon went on to found CLR design in Philadelphia, from 1984 – 2004. CLR Design allowed the client to choose the subject of innovation while creating projects and designs. Jon highlights how they work FOR animals WITH people. In 2004 Jon founded Jon Coe Design, and gives us in depth insights on the projects, including cutting-edge ideas for other firms to develop. A few of many other projects they have completed are Zoos Victoria, Sea World Gold Coast, Bali Safari & Marine Park, Singapore and Kabul Zoo in Afghanistan.Jon tells us how combined Jones & Jones and CLR design have gained 13 American Zoo & Aquarium Exhibit Awards all while in the USA. Jon highlights a few projects he has completed such as at Louisville Zoo, Zoo Atlanta and how they use animal rotation and activity-based design to design the enclosures. This also includes Treetop Trails Philadelphia with overhead animal trail systems so they move across the zoo freely.Jon explains the 5 C's and how it branches from the UK's 5 freedoms. He tells us that the C's stand for the animal's right to: Choice, Control, Complexity and Change to achieve Competence. Jon also shares with us how proper environmental enrichment is the toolbox for achieving behavioural, physical and intellectual competence for animals in human care.Jon shares with us at the end about his poems and sketches that can be found on his website and how they all started and make him feel. Jon gives a quick insight into collaborative work with Sabrina Brando on the back of house areas in zoos, and a more in-depth webinar on the PAWS platform in June 2021.Jon ends the podcast with leaving us a closing message and answering the question what the message is, and how in an ideal world how he would reinvent the enclosures in zoos.View Jon Coe Design website HERERead all papers by Jon Coe HEREView Jon's Research Gate HEREView all sketches and poems HEREWatch the latest webinar between Jon and Sabrina HEREBecome a PAWS member HERE

It's our last full week in Brooklyn and we're spending the episode touring one of our favorite spots in the city: Marine Park. We tour its marshlands in search of beat up car wrecks and talk what it feels like being so close to the project's end.  Plus, we talk some details into our wedding just four weeks away at this same park!

Close your eyes and imagine you're sitting in your home. You're minding your own business and just enjoying your place. A place you've looked after for a long time. Someone comes in. They don't knock, they just roll through the front door, look around and say “I'm just going to change this”. Maybe they pull out some of the plants in your garden, they trash your living room, eat all of your food. You'd be livid! And rightly so, of course you would. When you try to talk or fight back, they attack you with weapons and overpower you,. Then they tell your children that you weren't living the right way. They take them away from you. And then, every year on that day, they throw a huge party at your place, to celebrate their achievement. How would that make you feel? It's ridiculous right? That would never happen. We couldn't as humans, as neighbours, as brothers and sisters, possibly let that happen to someone… could we? You see as I record this episode, we are coming up to Jan 26th here in Australia. Most of my listeners will know what that day means, but for anyone overseas, Jan 26th is ‘Australia Day' Australia Day is the day where we celebrate the colonisation of this country. The day when the first fleet landed here 233 years ago and raised a British flag. And we generally celebrate it with heavy drinking, BBQs, fireworks, temporary tattoos, Aussie flags, maybe some loud music at the beach, maybe a burnout or two, and just generally being obnoxious. I mean, how else should we celebrate the colonisation of a foreign land by a monarchy? How else should we celebrate the disruption of the world's oldest living culture? How else should we celebrate and commemorate such a significant date? __ My guests today, brothers Kyle & Josh Slabb, are Bundjalung men – men whose families, whose ancestors have been living in the same place for tens of thousands of years. They're men who have been brought up learning from their elders, learning the stories of how to live, how to help each other, and how to be in harmony with and respect Nature. And you would think they have every right to be vindictive, to be unforgiving, to shut down from approaching our society. They are the polar opposite of those things. And it just goes to show the strength of their culture, their community, and their mindset, that they have spent their lives actively engaging, embracing, educating modern society about better ways to live for all of us. They reflect on the last 200 or so years and say, “yeah, we need to acknowledge the truth of what happened, but what kind of world do we want to create, TOGETHER, for the next 200 years?” These guys are such talented people. Between them they've done everything from curating musical productions (including at the 2018 Commonwealth Games), completed education in environmental management and gone on to be a National Park and Marine Park ranger, successful competitive surfing, business owners, and more… and one of their current projects is Banaam Cultural Intelligence, where they hold workshops for companies, schools, organisations all about principles of Indigenous culture that have successfully governed Indigenous societies for tens of thousands of years. Now more than ever we need to highlight and hold up Aboriginal voices.

Jessica Ramos, member of the New York State Senate representing District 13 (Corona, East Elmhurst, Elmhurst, Jackson Heights, and parts of Astoria and Woodside in Queens) and Andrew Gounardes, member of the New York State Senate representing District 22 (Bay Ridge, Dyker Heights, Bensonhurst, Bath Beach, Gravesend, Gerritsen Beach, Manhattan Beach, and Marine Park in Brooklyn), talk about their priorities for the next legislative session where it looks like the Democrats will have a "super" majority, meaning they could override any vetoes by the governor.

Tim Beshara is Manager of Policy and Strategy at The Wilderness Society Australia, former Media Adviser Office of Senator Peter Whish-Wilson and previously olicy adviser to incoming Environment Minister the Hon Robyn Parker MP, responsible for National Parks, Marine Park reforms, Threatened Species policy and Native Vegetation reforms. He shares his inside knowledge and analysis of the recent machinations within the NSW Coalition Government and the likely electoral ramifications for them if they can't effectively bring their Koala Killer faction to heel.

They can genuinely compete with Mediterranean and Caribbean islands concerning natural splendor. The North African islands and South African islands are also significant ones for traveling if we consider the few destinations there.

Marine Parks can provide some sort of protection; however, it all depends on the types of Ocean uses that are allowed to take place such as fishing or deep-sea mining. More protections may be necessary once research in the marine park takes place.  An example of this scenario occurred in a recent study at a Marine Park in Australian Water where the banks and pinnacles that typified the undersea habitats made way for a higher than expected number of species. The high biodiversity increased the call for better protection from commercial and recreational fishing that is allowed in the Marine Park.

Your part in protecting and improving the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park for future generations. The Hauraki Gulf Marine Park, New Zealand's only marine park, turns 20 years old this year. To celebrate, we reflect on the riches it has provided to the people of Tāmaki Makaurau, New Zealand and international visitors. It’s a place of rich beauty and great adventure. The Gulf is home to 25 species of whale and dolphin and is a global seabird hotspot with 26 species resting and nesting here. There are over 45 predator-free Gulf islands that provide sanctuary for some of our country’s most endangered wildlife including kokako, kiwi and tuatara. Tīkapa Moana is recognised as a precious taonga (treasure), highly valued by many for cultural, environmental, social, recreational and economic reasons. However, as we commemorate the 20th birthday, we also reflect on the impact humans have had on our cherished Marine Park. The once mighty ecosystem is suffering from the decimation of shellfish beds, decreasing fish stocks, a seabed littered with plastic, sediment issues and increased pressure from development and tourism. We all have a responsibility to ensure our actions support and improve the mauri of the Gulf. The next 20 years need to embody regeneration and renewal, not degradation, to ensure the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park is safeguarded for future generations – it’s our gift to the Gulf.

On this episode of H2OMG I visit Starrett Keel, a firefighter and fire safety educator with the Fort Worth Fire Department, and a volunteer with the Fort Worth Drowning Prevention Coalition or FWDPC. We talk about  why Texas ranks second state in the nation for fatal drownings and why Tarrant County leads the state in pediatric drownings. We also talk about how all the wonderful volunteers with the Drowning Prevention Coalition are using their Swim Safe program to educate kids and parents about water safety. Then I take a trip to an actual Swim Safe class at the Marine Park pool. You’ll hear a little bit of the classes and get a feel for what they’re like. I didn’t get this on the recording but the first thing the 3 year olds do is read a book about water safety and IT IS adorable. I also got to talk with Pam Canell, the Executive Director of the FWDPC for a few minutes (she was extremely busy, as you can imagine). Thanks to Starrett, Pam, and all the wonderful people who volunteer with the FWDPC for letting me come out and helping to spread the word. The Swim Safe programs happen every summer and there’s one more coming up in July. you can find out more about the Fort Worth Drowning Prevention Coalition at https://fwdpc.org/, including how to donate to this great cause.

The gang is back with another episode to melanate your palate and feed your soul! This week we are joined in the studio with a special guest Jovia Radix Candidate for Councilwoman for the 45th District in Brooklyn. We discuss her platform for city council - to be the first councilwoman & black councilwoman. Consisting of: Flatbush, East Flatbush, Flatlands, Ditmas Park, Kensington, Midwood, & Marine Park "Growing up in the 90’s in Flatbush, I watched as our neighbors couldn’t stand up for themselves while having housing and fair wage issues that weren’t addressed due to their fear and lack of documentation. This led my mother to create DC 37’s first ever immigration program for union members. AS Councilwoman, I pledge to create more of these types of programs, even though we cannot change Washington’s policies we can arm our society with the resources to combat them. As Councilwoman, I will fight to give our students the training to prepare them for the future and the options to allow them to choose exciting career paths. I want to bring my passion for securing their future to City Council. My life’s work has been centered around public service. And now it’s time for me to serve you. As an Attorney, I have worked on defending tenant’s rights and government affairs across our city. I seek to leverage that expertise to create and promote policies in the best interest of the 45th council district." ~ Jovia Radix For more info, please check out the following. www.radix4council.com https://www.facebook.com/radix4council https://www.instagram.com/radixforcouncil https://twitter.com/radix4council info@radix4council.com Office Address 4517 Ave D 2nd Fl.

For decades the Queensland Government has been authorizing the killing of a list of sharks that may pose harm to bathers along the beautiful beaches of the Great Barrier Marine Park. The Shark population has since decreased due to the ignorant killings.  Sharks would be caught on baited drum lines and government contractors would go and shoot the sharks.  The Humane Society launched a lawsuit in collaboration with other Marine Conservation Organizations, including Law Organizations to stop the senseless killing. Even the science says killing sharks will not offer better protections against bathers.  The courts have ruled in favor of the sharks as they sided with the scientific evidence that proves shark cullings do not work to protect bathers.  Drum lines may still be used; however, the sharks will have to be released almost immediately as well as tag all great white sharks, bull sharks, and tiger sharks.  Do you agree with the ban on killing sharks?

Does it make sense to allow Oil and Gas Exploration within the boundaries of a Marine Protected Area and still call it protected? Trudeau's government thinks it does.

"GOLDEN MIC" award-winning show from the Caribbean Tourism Organization. On today’s World Footprints we’re traveling through the southern Grenadines and will share the beauty and magic of this special part of the world. Our show originates from the beautiful Palm Island at the Palm Island Resort. Palm Island is a private tropical paradise comprising only 135 acres in size. You’ll meet Chris Ghita, a transplant from Grenada, who has found his place as General Manager of this remarkable resort. He’ll entice you to escape the hassles of the world with a visit to this tiny paradise. Then, we’ll introduce you to Palm Island’s most colorful character and resident artist and doctor, Patrick Chavellier. This wonderful man and his extraordinary studio is worth the visit alone. Patrick is one of the world’s finest undersea artists and we’ll learn about his art and his life in paradise. Finally, we’ll travel by powerboat to the Tobago Cays Marine Park—a protected wildlife preserve of five isles bordered by a giant horseshoe reef. This aquamarine blue and green water-scape serves as home to wild sea turtles and is a underwater haven for scuba divers and snorkelers alike. Here’s we’ll talk to Park Ranger Lesroy Noel who will describe the natural beauty surrounding us.

Both Cocos and Mapelo Islands in the Eastern Pacific Ocean are home to an abundance of marine animals, including numerous species of sharks, rays, dolphins and whales. Cocos Island is some 300 miles southwest of Costa Rica, and has been designated a Marine Park and World Heritage Site by Costa Rica. Malpelo Island is a little over 300 miles off the coast of Colombia and is designated as a Colombian Fauna and Flora Sanctuary, and marine protected area. The waters off both islands are considered by divers to be among the most exciting areas in the world for big animal sightings. The immense schools of Hammerhead Sharks that gather in these waters leave divers awestruck. The biodiversity is rich and vulnerable. Join Shawn Heinrichs as he takes us there to experience the magnificence of these animals and many other marine animals that abide in the rich waters surrounding the islands of Cocos and Malpelo. Shawn Heinrichs is a conservation filmmaker based in Longmont, Colorado, USA. To learn more about Shawn and his work, please visit his website, BlueSphereMedia.com.

If you sailed the whole of Africa's 18, 950 mile coastline, you would visit 33 countries. Because the ocean has no boundaries, nothing can be done without consequences for the whole. The ocean can seem like a useful bin for the huge amount of waste produced by humankind, but this is not true. Pollution is building up, as oil, plastic and sewage are dumped from boats, cities and factories. On our blue planet, it can seem as though the bounty of the oceans is endless, but over-fishing and by-catch are also threatening marine resources.
