Beyond Climate: Full Pollution Fight

Beschreibung

Our oceans face a silent danger: noise pollution. Unlike plastic or oil spills, this threat is invisible. Yet, the constant roar of ships, sonar, and seismic surveys disrupts the underwater world. Marine life relies on sound for communication, navigation, and hunting. This growing din disorients whales, dolphins, and fish, making it hard to find food, mates, or safe havens. Chronic exposure can even damage hearing or cause stress. The consequences ripple through the ecosystem. This unseen threat demands action. Quieter technologies and responsible management of noisy activities can help safeguard the ocean's soundscape and the creatures that depend on it
