Globally, some eight million tonnes of plastic is dumped into the ocean every year, killing marine life and entering the human food chain. Five Asian nations account for 60% of the waste entering our oceans. The ubiquitous spread of plastic waste into every part of the marine environment has captured the attention of academics, industries, environmentalists, and the public. Plastic debris and animals killed by the ingestion of plastic capture the daily struggle of the world’s ocean ecosystems. The massive scale of this problem threatens our food security and sustainability.
On behalf of the Tropical Marine Science Institute, we would like to announce the following symposium, Environment Challenges for a Tropical Port City: Celebrating 20 years of marine science.

Pteropods are planktonic gastropods that live in the water column throughout oceans worldwide. They show limited acclimation responses to the effects of ocean acidification (OA), with dissolution of their shell observed in individuals exposed future acidity levels. However, we also need to study their long term adaptive potential to cope with incremental changes in acidity.
