‘Huge amounts’ of litter clog up EU waters. Will robots save the day?

Scientists and companies behind SeaClear2.0 and its predecessor SeaClear have developed a fleet of drones that can independently identify rubbish lying on the seabed.

The EU-funded initiative is helping tidy up the litter-filled sea floor, and could even be used to detect hidden mines.

#Wale und #Delfine sind stark mit langlebigen #PFAS belastet.

Eine neue #Studie aus #Neuseeland zeigt, dass selbst tief tauchende Arten wie #Pottwale vergleichbare Belastungen aufweisen wie küstennahe Tiere. Die #Chemikalien könnten das Immun- und #Fortpflanzungssystem der Tiere beeinträchtigen.

Auch in #Europa wurden PFAS bereits im Körper fast aller Menschen nachgewiesen.

Toxic ammunition is rotting away in the Baltic Sea. Germany wants to recover it before it’s too late.

Approximately 1.6 million tonnes of WWII munitions lie on the seafloor, leaking toxic compounds that are contaminating marine life and threatening the Baltic ecosystem.

About bottle caps and a general denial of reality.

I made this work in 2012. I filled a humming top with plastic objects found in the stomach of one albatross chick on Kure Atoll (Northwestern Hawaiian islands). 340 g. Cigarette lighters, plastic fragments, toys and mainly bottle caps.

There is a reason why the lids no longer come off the bottles!

[Swaantje Güntzel, stomach contents/340g, 2012, plastics, metal, 19,7 x 26,7 x 25,4 cm]

Realized with the help of Kure Atoll Conservancy.
