‘Windows to the Sea’ – A lecture series introducing the Israeli coastline and the marine environment of Israel and the Mediterranean Sea. We explore the unique characteristics of the Mediterranean and Israel’s coastal strip, learn about the animals that inhabit our surroundings, and discuss human impact on these habitats.
‘A Sea of Waste: A lecture on the problem of marine waste in the Mediterranean Sea and the world’s oceans. We address the growing accumulation of waste on beaches and in the sea. Various estimates state that about 8 million tons of waste enter the oceans and seas every year. Most of it is plastic, a material that does not biodegrade but only breaks down into smaller pieces. We examine how this issue affects us and how we can drive change in our workplaces and in our daily lives.
‘Man and the Sea’ focuses on the importance of the sea to humanity and to life on Earth, on the impact of human activity on the marine and coastal environment, and on our ability to champion change to protect them.
