OCEAN POLLUTION : EPIC RAIN STORMS, RIVERS, and CRUISE SHIPS

As we wait on a deluge of rain, possibly as much rain as is usually expected in a six month period, in just two or three days, as people in various parts of Southern California - Ventura County, Sun Valley in the San Fernando Valley, and Long Beach in Southern Los Angeles County, are asked to evacuate or be prepared for flooding, I'm confident that the home I live in will not flood.  However, these storms always end in pollution being rushed into the ocean.  Two rivers, the San Gabriel and the Los Angeles empty into the Pacific not far from here. Rivers are the way that most plastic pollution enter the ocean.  However, I also believe that cruise ships are using the ocean as a toilet and dump.  I believe that the massive ships that hold thousands of passengers are responsible for killing marine animals both by dumping, by collision, and by fuel pollution.

Intense rainstorms are the result of Climate Change.  Here at Siren's Link to Sea BlogSpot, I use the term Climate Change rather than Global Warming, because I'm not entirely convinced that we aren't actually moving into another Ice Age.

SURFERS AGAINST SEWAGE ! EVER AVOID GETTING INTO THE WATER BECAUSE OF THE YUK FACTOR?

SURFERS AGAINST SEWAGE - GREAT BRITAIN 

After learning that very many people avoid going into rivers or the sea because of fears of becoming sick from sewage, I learned about this group.

I sure hope the mermaids are not killed off from sewage.

PROJECT POLLUTION PREVENTION and DOGGIE PET POO (Pick it Up! Throw flea meds in Hazard Waste!)

LA DWP WINTER NEWSLETTER - PROJECT POLLUTION PREVENTION - PET WASTE 

Did you know that flea medications in poo can hurt ocean life?

Or that as it decomposes, pet poo uses up a lot of oxygen in the water and the decomposition can contribute to killing off marine life?

Department of Water and Power - Los Angeles reminds us that we should include flea control products including shampoos, sprays, and collars in Household Hazardous Waste Collection and that pet poo we have not picked up can wash into storm drains...
