Impact of contamination by plastics and other garbage on marine biota

Date of holding: 09/11/2017

Viewed: 157 times

Plugs, bags, pieces of nets or nylon ropes, are examples of remains of plastic origin that on the other side of their visual impact pose a danger to marine fauna and flora and even represent, by their trophic transfer, a risk to the human being. With the aim of publicizing the environmental problems of marine litter that affects all the seas and oceans of the planet and helping to minimize this impact, Campus del Mar and the Center for Marine Research of the University of Vigo and Adega, organize the next November 11 a simultaneous cleaning in a score of Galician beaches
