Disturbed by reports of litter on our beaches theguardian.com/environment/20…? 76% of the seafloor’s litter is made of #plastic, posing dangers to our oceans and the life it supports. Learn about prevalence, impact and what we are doing in our second #Cefas20 infographic! Thomas Maes

Plastics are prevalent in our marine environment. #BluePlanet2 viewers will have been shocked at the impacts they and other marine litter have on our marine environment. Our new #Cefas20 infographic summarises what we have found and what we are doing to help.

Our marine environment is pressured by a whole range of human activities. We work with Defra UK, JNCC, Natural England and others to protect biodiversity in UK's marine conservation zones #MPAs #Cefas20 3 of 20 #BluePlanet2

We find on average 1.5 pieces of plastic for every 1m^3 of sea surface. Thomas Maes and colleagues both in Cefas and UK/International collaborators are assessing the pervasiveness, analysis and impacts to inform action. x.com/BBCEarth/statu…
