🎉 New research out today 🌊➡️🛰️ Although I’m a marine scientist, over the last couple of years I’ve been obsessed with space debris. However, alongside colleagues, we noticed that there was a growing pattern. Challenges in protecting the ocean are now being reflected in orbit.

🌊🗑️🛰️ A new life highlight: telling UK Parliament we’re living in a litter sandwich Plastic below in the ocean, debris above in Earth’s orbit. I shared how: 1. We need space literacy 2. Prevention > clean-up 3. We must act fast, before we repeat old mistakes

@minderoo Indian Ocean Forum 🇦🇺 Building a collective IO voice for the United Nations Ocean Conference Key takeaways: 1️⃣ Capacity sharing not capacity building 2️⃣ Better ways to communicate science 3️⃣ Parachute science, breaking barriers & supporting local knowledge

@JayminLSEM203 Thanks for your Q, Jaymin! Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is lead by example with what is accessible to you. Even if you pick up a piece of litter, someone probably saw you and next time, they might do the same. Small actions create ripples.

Hello @ImogenNapper, I’m a student at Wilfrid Laurier University in Canada currently researching ocean plastic pollution and its effects on marine ecosystems. In your opinion, what is the most impactful action individuals can take to help reduce plastic entering our oceans?
