Our team spent some time on Newfoundland's gorgeous southwest coast, where work is still ongoing to clean-up the coastline after hurricane Fiona. We found plenty of evidence of the power of a stormy sea. There's still lots of work to be done! #AHOIWasteBusters #ghostgear

We found more than just ghost gear during our recent trip to Newfoundland's southwest coast. We also encountered lots of marine creatures entangled in nets. 🐟 Can you identify the fish in the last image? ________________ #AHOIWasteBusters #ghostgear Fisheries and Oceans Canadian Centre for Fisheries Innovation

In January we took our ROV to the southwest coast of Newfoundland to explore sites and do some coastal clean-up as part of our ghost gear removal project. We collected 4540lbs of ghost gear and marine debris! #AHOIWasteBusters #BeatPlasticPollution Fisheries and Oceans Canadian Centre for Fisheries Innovation

Have 2 minutes to learn something new about our planet? This video from @plasticoceansus explains ocean gyres & how they create damaging ocean microplastics. Watch to the end for easy ideas about how you can help solve the problem. youtu.be/tfHfoafRxtY?si… #beatplasticpollution

When you think of ghost gear entanglement, you may think of large animals like whales wrapped in fishing nets and rope. This photo that we took in southwestern NL is a reminder that creatures big and small can (and do) get entangled in ghost fish gear ☹️ #AHOI #ghostgearfund

A few weeks ago, the East Harbour Heroes crew filmed an episode featuring AHOI. We chatted with them about our marine protection work here in Gros Morne. We even got them in the water with us! Stay tuned for the episode on The Discovery Channel soon. #AHOI #AHOIWasteBusters
