- Dive an Underwater River or Lake?
Underwater rivers and lakes exist, formed by saltwater mixing with hydrogen sulfide. This mixture is heavier than seawater, causing it to sink and create the appearance of flowing water. These underwater bodies can be found in locations like the cenotes in Mexico and some deep-sea lakes. While some areas can be toxic due to hydrogen sulfide, others, called "cold seeps," have rich ecosystems and support marine life. Scuba divers can capture stunning images of these unique underwater phenomena.

Recent research from the University of Portsmouth and the Marine Conservation Society revealed alarming levels of PFAS, or 'forever chemicals,' found in UK marine protected areas. These synthetic substances can accumulate in marine life and do not break down in the environment, posing long-term risks to both ocean ecosystems and human health. For example, these chemicals were detected in seaweed at levels over 6,000 times higher than the surrounding water, which can harm marine animals that feed on them. The findings highlight an urgent need for action to ban PFAS and prevent further pollution of our oceans.
