More and more marine litter is floating in our oceans. The Ocean Cleanup project aims to tackle the problem - but how effective is it really?

Researchers are exploring ways to monitor underwater human activity by listening to the natural sounds of sea creatures instead of using whale-harming methods like sonar.

Could the bodily fluids of sea creatures contain clues on how to best preserve our oceans?

UK scientists are investigating a natural solution to microplastic pollution in our oceans: mussels. These molluscs serve as efficient water purifiers, but can they make a real dent in our pollution problem?

Pollution is a severe threat to our coastal ecosystems. Now researchers believe that strategically planting seaweed in the Gulf of Mexico could protect marine life and prevent ocean “dead zones”.

Two Australian surfers have designed an automated rubbish bin that literally sucks pollution out of the water at marinas and ports. This low-cost and low-maintenance solution could help keep marine litter under control.
