海洋生態需要立即性的守護！
本月16日，孟加拉海邊驚現百餘隻海龜，其中，有的已明顯死亡、屍體殘缺不全，部分鰭足或頭部被魚網纏死割斷了；有的奄奄一息、身受重傷。
野生動物救援隊和環保人士獲報到場，估判大量的海龜群在海中就已受困在50噸的垃圾中，接著隨海流潮汐被沖上岸，垃圾量之大…蔓延岸邊好幾公里！環保人士仔細觀察被沖上岸的垃圾，發現有大量的廢棄寶特瓶、棄置漁網、釣魚用具、浮標，以及大量的碎片殘骸，全都是無法分解的人為垃圾。
Saddened to see that at least 20 #turtles died after they became entangled in nets and plastic waste, washed ashore on one of the world's longest beaches in #Bangladesh. Most of the turtles were at least 30 years old. Some turtles were rescued pic.twitter.com/PdsgWXWvnX

後來，動保人員試圖將倖存的海龜野放回海中，但沒想到牠們又返回海灘上，動保人員認為，海龜或許已無法再適應滿是垃圾的海洋環境、放棄求生。
然而，整體海洋環境的改善，需要更多人、更大的力量投入，且長期改善與維持，他們現在進行的搶救、醫治行動都僅是有限的力量。
About 160 sea turtles were rescued, after washing up on the Bay of Bengal in Bangladesh.

The Olive Ridley turtles began floating to shore with a mass of plastic bottles, fishing nets & other debris.

唯恐後續恐有第二波、第三波被沖上岸的死亡海龜…
當地環保單位對此感嘆，「這是我們首次看到如此大規模的海龜死傷場面，這是前所未見的！」
