Abstract
An estimated 80% of all the litter in our oceans is plastic, with a significant concentration of plastics debris in both polar oceans. The impact of this debris on the sensitive polar ecosystem could be profound. Join us for this fanscinating and highly relevant talk by Pelagic Marine Ecologist Dr Clara Manno from BAS as she explores the current research and existing situation in the polar regions.
Suitable for ages 15+, spaces are free but must be booked in advance from 11 February: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/polar-ocean-the-dead-end-of-plastic-debris-tickets-55153690172
