Plastic pollution is reshaping our oceans — and it starts with everyday choices.

From packaging to single-use items, what we use today can last for hundreds of years.

It’s time to rethink our habits 🌱

Phytoplankton — the microscopic powerhouses of the ocean — perform nearly half of all global photosynthesis.

They’re one of Earth’s most important engines for carbon cycling and climate regulation. 💙🌍

Undersea ‘storms’ are melting the ‘doomsday’ glacier’s ice shelf Spinning vortices of water trapped under the Thwaites glacier ice shelf account for 20 per cent of the ice melt. They’re expected to get worse as the world warms

Casper (ghost) octopus observed at 4,000 m depth — delicate and unseen, a rare form of life in the deep ocean that could be lost if deep-sea mining begins. Image: NOAA Office of Ocean Exploration and Research (2016).

4,000 m below the surface lives the Casper octopus — fragile, unseen, irreplaceable.

Machines are being built to mine its world.

Protect the unseen ocean before it’s too late.
