Wild LIVE: All the way downstream – the problem of pollution at sea.

In this month’s episode of Wild LIVE we’ll be discussing the issue of pollution at sea. Just how are our activities on land impacting on our marine life? Are plastics our only problem? And hasn’t the issue of plastic pollution been solved now anyway? As we mark National Marine Week, we’ll be putting these questions to our panel and more, helping us to build a better picture of what the challenges faced by our seas really are and what action is needed to reverse them. Our Ambassador, David Oakes will also help to shine a spotlight on the Isle of Man and the fantastic marine work of Manx Wildlife Trust, in a special video made for this episode. Our expert panel: Dr Helen Findlay, biological oceanographer at Plymouth Marine Laboratory Jo Bradley, Director of Operations for Stormwater Shepherds UK Dr Tim Ferrero, marine biologist and conservationist at Hampshire and Isle of Wight Wildlife Trust Sophie Webster, Catch My Drift Project Officer, Northumberland Wildlife Trust #WildLIVE
