Feral Atlas: Underwater noise Vs

Sea Fire
 “The Industrial Revolution and the invention of the internal
combustion engine gave humankind the tools to become the
planet’s noisiest creature. With time, we also became aware of
the negative effects of high levels of noise: hearing loss, increased
stress levels, a depressed immune system, and insomnia,.” (Tsing
et al, 2021).
 Empire
 Anthropogenic activities such as shipping and construction,
internal combustion engines
 Burn
 E.g., airgun explosion for investigate oil and gas reserves
 “One study show that “airgun” sounds almost 4,000 km can
hear from San Francisco which was generated in New York!”
(Tsing et al, 2021).
 Large marine mammals, for instance, whales are badly
affected by the anthropogenic noise
Sea fire (pale blue glow )
Dump
 Plantation condition, drainage, farming
Toxic environment and Crowd
 blue green algae, can cause disease or death in whales
 Toxic glowing algal blooms in the Baltic Sea
Accelerated by Climate change
 cause algae bloom
 Large masses of algae can block sunlight from reaching
smaller animals living around or beneath them, resulting in
the death of aquatic plants and marine (Tsing et al, 2021).
 People visit at nighttime to witness the bioluminescence even
though it is toxic a sea (nuclear reactor)
