Saison 1 · Épisode 3

vendredi 16 avril 2021 • Durée 45:47

In Episode 3 we explore our amazing ocean with Catherine Gemmell, Scotland Conservation Officer for the Marine Conservation Society UK.

From discussing endangered species that are for sale in our supermarkets, to tiny fibres travelling from our washing machines into the food chain, it’s clear that individuals, businesses and governments all have a role in marine conservation. The fun of diving, our favourite marine creatures and the ocean optimism movement all add to a great episode, full of fun facts about our “Wee Blue Dot”.
