The Deepest Ocean Trenches Contain High Levels of Pollution

"Profound sea trenches - considered the most remote places on the planet - have levels of harmful, modern chemicals 50 times higher than an exceptionally dirtied stream framework in China, an investigation of small remote ocean creatures has found. The disclosure, distributed in the present Nature Ecology and Evolution diary, features the inescapable idea of contamination and devastates the conviction these remote ocean unsettled areas are to a great extent safe from human debasement."

Earth Day² - Encounters with Trash

"You may surmise that working in the remote ocean implies that we just observe flawless conditions, however shockingly that isn't valid. Amid our 5,000-meter make a plunge Sirena Canyon, along the Mariana Trench divider, we saw numerous bits of marine flotsam and jetsam. A pop can, a sustenance tin, and a bit of rope all went with the fish, corals, and rocks that we imaged as we climbed the slant. We experienced much more waste (nine pieces!) on our plunge the next day at Enigma Seamount, including a few plastic packs and a bit of dress."

Bioaccumulation of persevering natural poisons in the most profound sea fauna "The inheritance and reach of anthropogenic impact is most plainly prove by its effect on the most remote and blocked off environments on Earth. Here we distinguish uncommon levels of industrious natural toxins in the endemic amphipod fauna from two of the most profound sea trenches (more than 10,000 meters)."
