Day 4 of #aloboutendangeredspecies is whale pose 🐋 🐋 Whales are an integral part of our ecosystem 🐋 When they die, whales sink to the seabed, taking massive amounts of carbon out of the atmosphere for centuries. Altogether, one whale captures the same amount of carbon over its lifetime as thousands of trees. 🐋New research shows whales near large cities ingest around 3 million microplastics per day. 🐋Six out of the 13 great whale species are now classified as endangered or vulnerable 🐬As many as 300,000 whales, dolphins, and porpoises are killed every year from entanglement in fishing gear. Ways we can help 🐋push the UN to establish a treaty to stop leaking plastic into the ocean 🐬Move ships away from whale habitats 🐋 Securing critical ocean habitats for whales 🐬 support collaborative science recommendations for policy changes. 🐋VOTE for candidates and measures that protect our environment ✨Hosts: @whitneydavisyoga @yogi_liza @yogi.Bree @_creatingandre @erikafischeryoga @helen_garner_yoga ✨Sponsors: @aloyoga @alomoves ✨Pose Line-Up: 1) Tigers🐅 2) Polar bears🐻‍❄️ 3) Rhinos🦏 4) Blue whales🐳 5) Gorillas🦍 6) Bees🐝 7) Monarch Butterfly🦋 8) Sea otters🦦 #aloyoga #aloyogachallenge #igyogacommunity #mindbodysoul #yogafam #yogafamily #yogainspiration #yogaphotography #beachyoga #alomoves #pilatesinstructor
