Investigating the effects of the world's oceans on the health of fish and seafood is a very important issue. Certain chemicals are found in seafood and they are classified as 'dangerous'. The latest research suggests that some of these chemicals can cause many different types of illnesses in people. In this report, we will introduce you to the effects of the world's oceans on the health of fish and seafood.
First of all, it's important to understand that there is a group of chemicals in seafood called 'dangerous' chemicals. What are dangerous chemicals? A dangerous chemical is one that can cause illness in people. This includes chemicals such as mercury and dioxins. There are also many other chemicals that can be found in seafood. These chemicals are very harmful to humans and animals, too. They might also make you sick or cause you to lose your hair. Consequently, consuming too much of these harmful chemicals in seafood can have a negative effect on the body and health. This includes the following: Mercury. Mercury is one of the most commonly found dangerous chemicals in the ocean. The idea behind the declaration of 'Stockholm Declaration' in 1972 is to make it as easy as possible for fishers to understand that they must also be aware of their environmental responsibilities.

All manmade items that wind up in the water, the majority of which are made of plastic, are considered marine garbage. This debris, which comes from sources on land in 80 percent of cases, accumulates as a result of littering, storm gusts, and poor waste management. Numerous plastic goods, such as shopping bags and beverage bottles, together with cigarette butts, bottle caps, food wrappers, and fishing equipment are examples of common maritime garbage. Being such a persistent contaminant, plastic waste is particularly harmful. Decomposition of plastic products might take hundreds of years.

Both people and animals are at risk from this garbage. In the debris, fish become entangled and hurt, and some animals mistakenly eat things like plastic bags thinking they are food. Small pieces of degraded plastic are consumed by small creatures termed microplastic, and their tissues take the toxins from the plastic in. Microplastics have been found in a variety of marine organisms, including plankton and whales, and have a diameter of less than five millimetres (0.2 inches). The poisonous compounds become a part of larger animals' tissues when they devour microscopic organisms that absorb microplastics. In this way, the contamination from microplastics moves up the food chain and eventually ends up in the food that people eat.

Today's civilization uses a lot of disposable and single-use plastic, including plastic bottles, shipping boxes, and shopping bags. The process of altering society's perspective on plastic consumption will be drawn out and fiscally difficult. In contrast, some items might make cleanup impossible. Numerous trash kinds, including some plastics, do not float and are therefore lost in the depths of the ocean. In ocean gyres, plastics that do float tend to assemble in sizable "patches". One such collection is the Pacific Garbage Patch, which spans an area of around 1.6 million square kilometres (617,763 square miles) between California and Hawaii and contains plastics and microplastics floating on and below the surface of whirling ocean currents. Therefore, preventing pollution before it happens and cleaning up after it does is the best measure we can take.

    Hello Ankit, this is your mentor Chelwoon.

    Have you heard of ¡°the great pacific garbage patch¡±? Marine dumping is one of the reasons why the great pacific garbage patch appears. We cannot let marine animals pick up the garbage we dump. If Marine animals do not deserve this, so does the WATER itself.

    Thank you for the article!

    Regards,
    Chelwoon

    Hello ankit, this is your mentor Joon.

    By throwing away different plastic trashes on the environment, it would eventually end up in the ocean. Once that happens, it seriously affects both marine, and human life.

    It was a pleasure for me to mentor you on past 6 months. What I feel, and realize now is that I have not been knowledgeable enough to provide more information related to different subjects. Hope you could keep up with environmental activities as well as your other works. Once again, thank you for following me.

    Well read your article, and let's keep up!

    Best,

    Joon
