❗️Turtle rescue in the Med Sea ❗️ While patrolling for FADs, one of our deckhands on the M/Y Sea Eagle spotted a piece of plastic floating on the water’s surface. Thanks to the binoculars, he realised that this plastic was attached to a turtle. Crew members quickly dived into the water to untangle and release the poor turtle, who swam away instantly. ❌ Did you know that plastics account for between 95 to 100% of total floating litter and more than 50% of seabed litter, with discarded plastic ghost gear being a huge part of it? 😡 👊🏻 Our direct action campaigns fight against plastic pollution by pulling out tons of ghost nets and other types of plastic litter from the Med Sea. 📸 Jordi Llurba / Sea Shepherd
