Make safe, sustainable seafood

choices
 Global fish populations are rapidly being depleted due
to demand, loss of habitat, and unsustainable fishing
practices. When shopping or dining out, avoid
choosing seafood that is both healthful and
sustainable.
Mind your carbon footprint and
reduce energy consumption
reduce the effects of climate change on the
ocean by being conscious of your energy use
at home and work. For example: use
compact fluorescent light bulbs, use stairs it
will save energy and at the same time would
be good for your health as well
Use fewer plastic products
Help take care of beach
 Always clean up after yourself on beach
 Explore without interfering with wildlife or removing
rocks and coral.
 Joining local water body cleanup would be highly
appreciated.
.Don’t purchase items that exploit
marine life
.support organisations working to
protect the ocean
.influence change in your
community
.travel the ocean responsibly
Stop wasting water
 This is Tungabhadra river in the summer season.
Rivers are drying and hence the habitat of marine
creature.
 We can save water by fixing broken taps in our houses
collages hostels . By closing the taps after use.
ALGAL BLOOM
* Algal bloom commonly refers to rapid growth of microscopic,
unicellular algae, not macroscopic algae. An example of a
macroscopic algal bloom is a kelp forest. Algal blooms are the
result of a nutrient, like nitrogen or phosphorus from fertilizer
runoff, entering the aquatic system and causing excessive growth
of algae.
* Harmful effects like blocking the sunlight from reaching other
organisms, causing a depletion of oxygen levels in the water, and,
depending on the organism, secreting toxins into the
water. harmful effects like blocking the sunlight from reaching

* Decrease the use of fertilizers and don’t drain untreated waste in
water bodies
Reduce human interference
 Now a days we are exploiting marine life for no big
cause. For some tourist attraction they have build an
whole new island, palm island, UAE. These kind of
practices must be stopped.
Engineer’s role in saving marine life
* We can develop some technology to reduce the effect
of climate change. For example one of the group is
working on smoke dedicator, we can make water level
indicator to reduce the water wastage. We Can make
water pollution level detector, etc.
