"Unearthed Trash in Pristine Ocean Abyss: A Stark Warning of Climate Change's Peril"

TL;DR
Divers exploring Belize's Great Blue Hole, a giant marine sinkhole, discovered a layer of toxic hydrogen sulfide at the bottom, preventing oxygen from reaching deeper. Among the trash found were a two-liter Coke bottle, a lost GoPro camera, and the bodies of two divers who were previously lost in the hole. The expedition also revealed stalactites, indicating that the Blue Hole was once a dry cave. The discoveries serve as a stark reminder of the dangers of climate change and plastic pollution, with billionaire Richard Branson emphasizing the need to address single-use plastic.
