  4. "When it was no longer tenable to discharge sewage at the cliff face..."

    "Last week, after torrential rain in Sydney, fresh poo balls washed up on the beach at Malabar, the closest beach to the problematic Malabar sewage treatment plant. In early April 2025, the EPA finally admitted the poo balls likely originated from Sydney Water’s land-based sewage treatment network."

    "The deepwater ocean outfalls were opened from 1990, mainly because they were the cheapest option when it was no longer tenable to discharge sewage at the cliff face. Funding a fix now will take political will – and some impressive engineering."

  9. Shark attacks and wastewater management practices

    "...The warnings for swimming water quality and shark safety were now effectively the same. If it’s poor water, if it looks dodgy, if it smells a bit off, don’t go in, because it’s not good. You could pick up a waterborne disease, but you could also become prey for a shark.” >>

  14. 4 shark bites in 48 hours: how what we do on land may shape shark behaviour

    "The four recent shark incidents in New South Wales followed an intense rainstorm that flushed runoff from land into the state’s coastal waters, reducing visibility and carrying pollution and waste into the sea."

    "A 2019 study found tiger and white sharks are more likely to attack after heavy rainfall. This is partly because heavy rainfall flushes out more nutrients to sea, which leads to higher fish populations near the shore. In turn, this attracts sharks."

    "Long-term solutions lie upstream."
    "Investment in stormwater management, wastewater infrastructure and runoff reduction helps stabilise coastal conditions and improve ocean health. It can also help reduce biological pressures by limiting parasite exposure."

  19. Greenland sharks can live 400+ years — and they aren’t blind after all. New research shows their vision genes and eye tissue stay intact for more than a century, even in the ocean’s dim twilight zone where they live.

    Adapted for low light, their eyes may help locate prey — and could even offer clues for preserving human vision over the long term.
