SUB TOPIC: Reduce Marine Pollution

Topics to be covered:

 information about marine pollution.


 causes of pollution in the ocean.
 marine pollution's effects.
 spillage of oil into the water.
 methods to stop marine pollution.

ARE YOU AWARE?

Our seas get an estimated 8 million tonnes of plastic every year.

What is pollution in the ocean?

Chemicals and debris, the majority of which originates on land and is dumped or blown into the
water, make up marine pollution.

Marine pollution's root causes

Marine creatures including whales, dolphins, seals, and sea otters regularly perish in oil spills.

Marine garbage is human-made rubbish that has been unintentionally or intentionally dumped into
an ocean or sea.

Impact of marine plastic pollution on:

 The Environment

Chlorinated plastic has the potential to leak dangerous chemicals into the soil around it. These
chemicals can then seep into nearby water sources, including groundwater, and the environment.

 Food And Wellbeing

In addition to being recognised to be endocrine disruptors and carcinogens, a number of the


chemicals employed in the manufacture of plastic products can cause developmental, reproductive,
neurological, and immunological issues in both people and wildlife.

 Tourism

According to the study, the amount of marine debris in beaches has tripled in certain coastal
regions will reduce the number of days that people spend there.

 Global Warming
850 million metric tonnes of greenhouse gases would be released into the environment as a result
of the manufacture and combustion of plastic.

 Marine Life

100,000 marine animals, turtles, and fish also perish as a result of plastic pollution.

 Offshore Oil Spill

An oil spill is a type of pollution that results from the discharge of a liquid petroleum hydrocarbon
into the environment.
