“The success of global action to protect the ozone layer shows what we can achieve when science, policy and countries work together towards a common goal.”
New paper highlights the #ocean's role in uniting global #EnvironmentalAction 👇

@pml.ac.ukScientists have produced the first ever framework which can be used to assess whether a region is of 'Good Environmental Status' in terms of #LightPollution - with authors stating that the evidence is now there for action on #ArtificialLightAtNight 👇
@pml.ac.ukAnd lastly, another from the archives - media coverage from Professor Steve Grooms research 🤩

@pml.ac.ukPlease join us in wishing a huge congratulations to Professor Steve Groom for an incredible 40 years of service at the lab! 🤩 And hear from our Director of Science Prof Tim Smyth who describes his incredible journey during his time here (in reply below) 👇
@pml.ac.ukTogether, we’re strengthening the South West’s position as a world-leading centre for marine research and innovation. Read the full story: pml.ac.uk/news/marine-...
@pml.ac.ukNow, a new Memorandum of Understanding will create further opportunities to bring together expertise, support the next generation of scientists and tackle some of the key challenges facing our ocean - and planet. 🧵👇
@pml.ac.ukDid you know? Our partnership stretches back more than a decade - and since 2021 alone, it has helped secure more than £10 million in #ResearchFunding, supported around 350 #ResearchPapers, and provided joint or shared supervision for 24 #PhDstudents. 🧵👇
@pml.ac.uk🤝 Stronger together: PML and the University of Exeter have signed a new agreement to deepen our collaboration on marine science. Discover our history in this thread 🧵👇
@uniofexeternews.bsky.socialReposted by @pml.ac.ukExeter and @pml.ac.uk signed a new Memorandum of Understanding today, which will strengthen opportunities for future collaboration and allow doctoral students to capitalise on the expertise and experience of scientists from both institutions.
@ncas-uk.bsky.socialReposted by @pml.ac.ukScience in action: An international group of researchers prepare to set sail on the @noc.ac.uk's RRS Discovery to investigate how remote ocean environments influence the Earth’s atmosphere and climate system.

@pml.ac.ukGreat to work with our friends at the National Oceanography Centre (@noc.ac.uk) on this study to investigate the potential extent of mining pollution across the globe.
@pml.ac.uk⚠️ Almost 300,000 km of the world's coastline at risk from #pollution linked to metal mines and mine waste, new research finds.
That's enough to circle the Earth more than seven times.
@pml.ac.uk🌧️ Rain = #sewage discharge = #pollution in the ocean? … not necessarily.
A #NewStudy has revealed that rainfall alone is a poor predictor of where E. coli contamination will strike: pml.ac.uk/news/sewage-...
@pml.ac.ukThe call accompanies the release of the #PlanetaryHealthCheck 2026, an assessment led by scientists at the Planetary Boundaries Science Lab - part of @pik-potsdam.bsky.social, and co-authored by Professor Findlay.

@pml.ac.uk💡 Just one year ago, in a landmark paper, Professor Findlay alerted the world to the news that the seventh planetary boundary had already been crossed: #OceanAcidification.
