  4. ‘It’s a catastrophe’: Wellington rages as millions of litres of raw sewage pour into ocean

    Abandoned beaches, public health warning signs and seagulls eating human waste are now features of the popular coastline in #NewZealand

    "A tide of anger is rising in New Zealand’s capital, Wellington, as the city’s toilets continue to flush directly into the ocean more than two weeks after the catastrophic collapse of its wastewater treatment plant.

    "Millions of litres of raw and partially screened sewage have been pouring into pristine #reefs and a #MarineReserve along the south coast daily since 4 February, prompting a national inquiry, as the authorities struggle to get the decimated plant operational.

    "Abandoned beaches, public health warning signs and seagulls eating human waste are now features of the popular coastline, with the environmental disaster zone adjacent to the airport where thousands of international visitors alight every day.

    "Fears for the safety of marine #ecosystems – including vulnerable species such as the little blue penguin, or #kororā, which nest along the shore – are mixed with concerns over the length and cost of disruption to those who depend on the coast for income, wellness, and recreation.

    "As a southerly storm whipped through the lower North Island and churned up polluted seawater this week, hundreds of residents turned out to a public meeting to seek answers.

    " 'They’re warning us to close our windows because a shit-laden hurricane is coming at us,' said the south coast resident and environmentalist Eugene Doyle, whose house faces the sea. 'Everyone in charge has done an appalling job, and they need to be held accountable.' "

  5. Arrecifes Pro Ciudad began in 2009 when residents, educators, and environmental advocates in Isla Verde united to protect the #reefecosystem threatened by pollution and unregulated coastal activity. What started as a #grassroots effort evolved into an officially designated #marinereserve — the Isla Verde Marine Reserve — through the enactment of Law 274 of 2012. #PuertoRico

  6. The seafloor around the remote British Overseas Territory of #AscensionIsland just got mapped, some of it for the first time ever...Looking at this cheerful looking crew in shorts , I wonder what it would be like to be one of the Ascension Island Government Conservation Team. gogeomatics.ca/seeing-what-lie #bathymetry #marineReserve

  7. I wish all those people filling bags with shells, & running their dogs off leash, & torturing things in rockpools with sticks would get so annoyed with me saying, you know it's a marine reserve, right? That they would decide to never come back because it's not worth the aggravation. Instead it's me. I'M SO AGGRAVATED #MarineReserve

  8. Usually when I ask people if they know it's a marine reserve they at least talk to me, even if they're shouting at me to fuck off. But today I called the DOC hotline on 3 chaps chiselling shellfish off the rocks who just looked over my shoulder into the distance and didn't say a thing when I told them why they shouldn't. Tough luck guys, try being polite next time #ImaNarc #MarineReserve

  9. Fitzgerald Marine Reserve
    Montara, CA

    A fantastic area of tide pools offering a view of diverse marine plants and animals—a treasure. Not too far south from San Francisco and the San Andreas Fault.

    Two figures can be seen out on the rock looking at the tide pools.

  10. Researchers have found that mesopredator sharks are thriving in New Zealand's marine reserves, likely because they, and the lobsters and fish they eat, are protected from fishing. #InGraphicDetail📊
