What are the the effects of ocean pollution?

Latest Research and What Synco is Doing to Help

Our oceans' health is critical to our planet's well-being, and it's time we take action to protect them. The latest research on ocean pollution paints a concerning picture of the state of our waters, with plastic waste, chemical pollutants, and oil spills causing significant harm to marine life and ecosystems.

According to the United Nations, up to 13 million tons of plastic enter the ocean each year, causing harm to sea creatures and destroying habitats. Plastic waste can also enter the food chain and potentially harm human health. Chemical pollutants, such as pesticides and heavy metals, also negatively affect ocean health and wildlife.

The good news is that organisations like Synco are working to combat this issue. We're dedicated to clearing our beaches and waterways of harmful waste, protecting wildlife, and stopping pollution. Our team of volunteers and donors are helping to make a real impact in the fight against ocean pollution.

In addition to our clean-up efforts, we're also educating the public about the importance of reducing waste and adopting sustainable practices. By raising awareness and promoting environmentally-friendly behaviour, we're hoping to reduce the amount of pollution entering our oceans and rivers.

We're also partnering with other organizations and government agencies to tackle the issue on a larger scale. Working together can make a more significant impact and protect our oceans for future generations.

It's time for all of us to take responsibility for the health of our planet. By supporting Synco and reducing our waste, we can play a crucial role in stopping ocean pollution and preserving the beauty of our waterways for years to come.
