Plastic and synthetic debris are silently choking our oceans, posing horrific impacts on marine wildlife and ecosystems. As an island continent, marine debris is particularly important for Australia. Creatures become entangled, drown, or ingest concentrated toxins, jeopardizing the food chain. Plastics also transport and introduce new species into environments.

To address this critical issue, the CSIRO research team spearheaded the world-first Marine Debris Survey, studying plastic pollution along Australia's coastline. This vital research was published on September 9, 2012, by ABC Catalyst.

New computer model visualizations project significant changes in U.S. precipitation patterns under varying carbon dioxide emissions scenarios. By 2100, the southwestern U.S. could become considerably drier, while the northeastern U.S. may experience increased wetness.

These visualizations offer a powerful depiction of climate change impacts, illustrating the potential transformation of our nation's climate. As Allison Leidner, Ph.D., a NASA scientist, notes, they communicate these impacts in a way words cannot.
