Ocean pollution is a growing concern around the world, with devastating impacts on marine wildlife. This pollution comes in many forms, including plastic waste, oil spills, chemical pollutants, and nutrient runoff from agriculture. These pollutants can have a range of negative effects on marine anim...
① Plastic pollution(塑料污染) in the ocean(海洋) is bad for wildlife. It takes years to break it down and is difficult to clean it up. Luckily, scientists found a way to stop plastic waste going into our oceans.② The WasteShark is a robot. It collects plastic waste in rivers and ne...

Not only does plastic pollution in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch pose risks for the safety and health of marine animals, but there are health and economic implications for humans as well. Impact on wildlife Plastic has increasingly become a ubiquitous substance in the ocean. Due to its size ...
Effects of Plastic on Marine Life Fish, marine mammals, and seabirds are being injured and killed by plastic pollution, and it is believed that 700 species could go extinct because of it. Current estimates suggest that at least 267 species worldwide have been affected, including 84% of sea ...
This is sometimes devastating for the local habitats and fish populations and for the incomes of the fishers who rely on them.Chapter 9: Vessel PollutionGo To Chapter 9There are countless millions of boats and ships in our oceans, ranging in size from small pleasure boats to massive oil ...
Therefore in this chapter, we summarize the related experiments in the last 20 years to discuss the interactive effects of ocean acidification (OA) combined with four other typical environmental stressors, namely ocean warming, hypoxia, salinity fluctuation, and heavy metal pollution, on marine ...
But now the ocean has been polluted to varying degrees: first, sewage enters the ocean, second, garbage enters the ocean, third, oil and other pollutants pollute seawater, and so on. The pollution in the coastal areas is very serious, and some fish have become extinct. For example, in th...
