Gray water: it’s black & white. Every year ships in Antarctica dump millions of liters of untreated gray water full of microplastics, heavy metals & toxins. With ship activity growing & no global restrictions, it’s time for Antarctic Treaty Parties to act. www.asoc.org/ice-archive/...

Jen Walsh of NOAA calculated that there’s enough Antarctic krill to fill the Empire State Building over 200 times. So why worry about krill fishing leaving seals and penguins without enough during breeding season? Read her blog to learn more. www.fisheries.noaa.gov/science-blog...
