Six out of the seven sea turtle species are <a href=\"https:\/\/iucn-mtsg.org\/about-turtles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">threatened with extinction<\/a> due to the pressures of multiple ocean threats. <\/p>\n\n<p>Sadly, it\u2019s more than just turtles at risk. In fact, studies have shown that marine life is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.smithsonianmag.com\/smart-news\/ocean-dwelling-species-are-disappearing-twice-quickly-land-animals-180972040\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">disappearing<\/a> at twice the speed of life on land. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>Our oceans face pressure from all angles. Climate breakdown is causing the oceans to acidify and warm, which is disrupting food supplies for marine life and damaging ecosystems. Overfishing, oil drilling, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/story\/how-does-plastic-end-up-in-the-ocean\/\">plastic pollution<\/a> and destructive industries are then adding more pressures on an already damaged and degraded ocean. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/story\/what-is-seabed-mining-and-why-does-it-threaten-the-oceans\/\">Seabed mining<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/story\/what-is-seabed-mining-and-why-does-it-threaten-the-oceans\/\">deep sea mining<\/a> is a new threat on top of all that.<\/p>\n\n<p>Out in the open oceans, beyond national boundaries, corporate exploitation has been allowed to run rampant, pushing our oceans and all those who call them home to a crisis point.<\/p>\n\n<p>Plastic pollution in particular, driven by mega corporations like Coca Cola is a major threat to turtles.
