You know the story of the\ntitle of my post. You also remember the hero of the story and why his ship\ntravelled long distances; The subject is “Captain Nemo, who was offended\nby the world as a result of wars and cruel events, and travels to all the seas\nof the world with his crew in the submarine Nautilus”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the near future, we will lose our spirituality and spiritual power due to the importance that human beings give only to materiality, and the creatures living in our seas will be offended by us and go to depths where we cannot reach them, maybe they will perish. Because we are attacking and destroying their habitats. We do it by war, but with the fuel used, but with research done under the sea, but with nuclear tests\u2026 We do it somehow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this text; I will talk\nabout how our seas are polluted, how different waters are transported to\ndifferent waters, and what changes this situation has caused. And I will cover\nthis topic in five (5) topics. In addition, I will be leaving two titles as a\nnote at the end of this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1-\nEvacuation of the balance water of the ships:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Local organisms accompany the ships when they sail,\nthat is, when they sail. These organisms are kind of hitchhikers, and some take\nthis journey unintentionally. In fact, we can call them a kind of invader. They\ncan travel long distances. They can invade and disrupt ecosystems far from\ntheir native habitat and drive out native species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– These invaders travel tied on the sides or bottom of\nboats. However, much more of them continue their journey by hiding in the\n“ballast tanks” of the ships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– If a ship leaves port without cargo, it fills the ballast tanks with water to help maintain its balance. When it arrives at the port where it will load, it pumps this water out in order to receive the load. It is in this water that the creatures that have been detached from their local and natural habitats mix with the new waters they are transported to. Ballast waters are the largest carriers of marine species. Some living things that were moved by this change of location cause the extinction of some living things living in the local ecosystem. E.g; The veined Rapa snail (native to Asia) damages newly found nests. This snail is a creature that was transported from its native waters to the Chesapeake Bay and has become a predator and a threat to clam fisheries in the bay. Likewise, Trumpet and lionfish, which have crossed the Red Sea and reached the warm Mediterranean waters of Turkey, also harm the ecosystem by eating the eggs and fry of underwater creatures in this region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ballast Water Discharge<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

– To prevent a ship from being transported from its\nlocal address to another of these organisms; it may be possible for ship\ncaptains to prevent the carriage of smuggled invaders by washing and refilling\nballast tanks with ocean water before arriving in port. For this reason, in the\nUnited States and some other countries, ships began to be required to keep\nballast waters on board and\/or to thoroughly wash these tanks in deep waters\naway from the shore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– It is also known that some research centres and some\nscientists are studying techniques such as filtering and\/or purifying ballast\nwaters with UV rays and\/or heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– An international measure to protect the environment\nwent into effect on September 8, 2017, in order to prevent the damage these\ninvaders can cause by spreading. The International Convention on the Control\nand Management of Ships’ Ballast Water and Sediments (BWM Convention) requires\nships to manage this situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– PS: The BWM Convention was adopted in 2004 by the\nInternational Maritime Organization (IMO), the United Nations specialized\nagency responsible for developing global standards for ship safety and security\nand protecting the marine environment and atmosphere from all harmful effects\nof shipping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Expanding ship trade and traffic volumes over the\npast few decades have made the release of invasive species more likely.\nHundreds of invasions have already occurred, sometimes with devastating\nconsequences for the local ecosystem, economy and infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– All ships must have a ballast water logbook and an\nInternational Ballast Water Management Certificate. For this, it is necessary\nto apply two different standards; <\/p>\n\n\n\n
