Sargasssum brings another ‘golden tide’ on our shorelines Rahanna Juman, Institute of Marine Affairs For yet another year, massive quantities of sargassum are seen washing up along our coasts and is causing concern among fisherfolk and other beach users. This new source of sargassum is now linked to climate change and ocean eutrophication, and these are likely to continue supporting significant sargassum blooms into the future. As such, annual mass influxes of sargassum into the Caribbean Sea are now being considered as the new normal, requiring sustainable management responses and long-term adaptation (Desrochers et al. 2020). Pelagic (free-floating) sargassum, a brown algae from the equatorial Atlantic, comprises a mixture of two or possibly three different sargassum species, namely sargassum fluitans III, sargassum natans I, and sargassum natans VIII (Schell, Goodwin, and Siuda 2015) that forms large floating mats often referred to as “golden tides.” These species are

INSIGHT: Before we talk about oil pollution, what are we doing about plastic?

tsmith-cartwright@tribunemedia.net AS The Bahamas prepares for the possibility of oil drilling and the risk of spillage, this archipelagic nation ranks among the top 30 per capita plastic global polluters, according to a Forbes Magazine report. It should be noted that as of January 2020 a ban on plastic products came into effect across The Bahamas. Kristal Ambrose, winner of the 2020 Goldman Environmental Prize, somehow convinced the government of The Bahamas to ban single-use plastic bags, plastic cutlery, straws, and styrofoam containers and cups. The ban was announced in April 2018 and, as said, came into effect in January of this year.
