Throughout our planet, marine life is suffering and the threats are growing. This is occurring globally with a variety of problems, such as pollution, poaching, overfishing,  and climate change. 

So how can we save our marine life?  There are little things we can all do!  For instance if we pick up our rubbish every day from school then it won’t go down the drains and into the bay, and suffocate and harm many sea creatures such as the turtle.

What else can we do?  Be aware of what we are fishing and how much.  And think about how our actions can cause a domino effect. If we take all the baby fish then we will reduce the population as they don’t grow old enough to breed. 

Engine Fuels can also harm our sea life. To reduce the harm you should be aware of the types of fuels we use in boats as some can cause more harm to marine life than others.
