And 'the slogan of the regional campaign "No more plastic Liguria beautiful," willingly accepted by the municipality of La Spezia in order to promote among the citizens of a change in daily habits, to a more environmentally oriented.

The plastic is killing turtles in the Adriatic Sea are discussed
One in three has a bit 'in the belly. Among the turtles found dead, one in three had plastic fragments in the digestive tract. As a minimum these space debris to steal food. How to cause maximum death and occlusion. The research has documented a fresh publication of the University of Zagreb on the scientific journal Marine Pollution Bulletin. Chemical pollution of the Adriatic is known and studied for some time: this is the first time that scientists dealing with solid waste. They found that the situation is serious. Although the breeding sites are further south, the northern Adriatic Sea is a very important place for sea turtles: the coastal waters are shallow and warm, and is one of the few places in the Mediterranean in which even the young turtles may eat of benthic organisms that live on fondali.Però sui fondali c’è anche la plastica. Gli studiosi di Zagabria hanno effettuato l’autopsia su 54 tartarughe che il mare ha buttato a riva morte, o che sono morte impigliate nelle reti dei pescatori. Ebbene, un terzo di questi 54 animali aveva frammenti di plastica nel tubo digerente: sacchetti per la spesa, imballaggi, cordini, polistirolo espanso, filo per la pesca. Una tartaruga aveva addirittura ingerito 15 pezzi di plastica, che occupavano quasi per intero il suo stomaco: anche se pesavano complessivamente solo 0,7 grammi, secondo gli scienziati sono stati probabilmente sufficienti ad uccidere l’animale.
