OUR OCEANS ARE IN BAD HEALTH and if we don't do anything the fish numbers will plummet and the sea plant life will die. This is being caused by pollution
Over 1 million marine animals including mammals, fish, sharks, turtles, and birds die a year from pollution. Also so much sea life is dying from factories and sewage. Factories are also a major contributing factor to water pollution across the globe. The illegal dumping of contaminated water, gases, chemicals, heavy metals or radioactive materials into major waterways causes damage to marine life and the environment as a whole.
Sewage Around the world, untreated sewage flows into coastal waters, carrying organic waste and nutrients that can lead to oxygen depletion, as well as disease-causing bacteria and parasites that require closing beaches and shellfish beds . As the human population grows, so will the volume of raw sewage pouring into the oceans.
POLLUTION
The increased concentration of chemicals, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, in the coastal ocean promotes the growth of algal blooms, which can be toxic to wildlife and harmful to humans. The negative effects on health and the environment caused by algal blooms hurt local fishing and tourism industries.
CONCLUSION
I hope I have convinced you to think more carefully about pollution, factories and sewage and our oceans.
