The Whale Sharks and Mantas of Isla Mujeres Mexico touch my soul with such incredibly moving experiences that will alter my forever! Join us to experience this for yourself next year! @jim_abernethy #savethesharks #ilovesharks #FinBanNOW #Banonetimeuseplastics #nature #Bethechangetheworldneeds #whaleshark #splitimage (at Isla Mujeres, Quintana Roo, México)

Caribbean Reef Sharks up close with a Large Green Moray! Waiting for everything to be in the right place so you can take this kind of image requires lots of patience! If we continue to kill species needlessly, use one time use plastics and not address our planet issues like global warming, we won't have these creatures in the future! Let's all make a decision...Be part of the the solution or continue to be part of the Problem! What's your choice? @jim_abernethy #shark #greenmorayeel #beautiful #Bethechangetheworldneeds #epic #globalwarmingisreal #FinBanNOW #Banonetimeuseplastics #nature (at Tiger Beach)

The late Rob Stewart uses my camera as a shield to play with this curious tiger shark while at Tiger Beach with me during the film shoot of the Shark Angel film. I'm humbled, honored and so proud to have known this incredible conservationist and tremendous spokesperson for sharks! He was able to change the viewpoint of sharks in huge ways worldwide with his films, presentations and work! I'm so grateful to be able to call him a great friend and miss him dearly! @jim_abernethy #savethesharks @teamsharkwater #welovesharks #FinBanNOW #finfree #beautiful #Bethechangetheworldneeds #Banonetimeuseplastics #epic #love #bethevoice #conservation

#Repost from our founder @jim_abernethy conservationist friends... @salvemosalambiente Follow her for amazing conservation posts and inspiration! @download.ins --- Fish, seabirds, sea turtles, and marine mammals can become entangled in or ingest plastic debris, causing suffocation, starvation, and drowning. Plastic waste kills up to a million seabirds a year. As with sea turtles, when seabirds ingest plastic, it takes up room in their stomachs, sometimes causing starvation. 100 million marine animals die each year from plastic waste alone. #SalvemosAlAmbiente @wildlifevoiceinc #plasticpollution #plastickills #banonetimeuseplastics #welovesharks #endextinction #saveouroceans #saveourplanet https://www.instagram.com/p/CQxDvZLh8QH/?utm_medium=tumblr

Beautiful juvenile loggerhead turtle off Palm Beach, Florida! All turtle species numbers have been decimated worldwide from what they were just 50 years ago! Never buy animal products of anykind, ever! All marine turtle species are in very serious trouble. Let's all work really hard to fix our oceans issues while we still can. Refusing to use #onetimeuseplastics would also help out tremendously! If we all make life style changes to benefit the heart of our planet, the changes for the future will be huge! @jim_abernethy #beautiful #Bethechangetheworldneeds #Banonetimeuseplastics #epic #saveprotectedanimals #saveocean #saveturtles #marineturtle #turtle #saveplanet #naturephotography #floridanature @wildlifeVOICEinc #underwaterphotography #loggerheadturtle #turtleresearchers (at Jim Abernethy's Scuba Adventures & Marine Life Art Gallery)

15 years ago I rescued a tiger shark that had a plastic packing strap cutting into her body all the way around her head, in front of her pectoral fins! I saw her again at tiger beach a few weeks ago, but this past week I was able to rub her head affectionately like I had so long ago to get close enough to cut the strap! I'm so very happy to see that she survived such a horrific, brutal and devastating injury caused of my species! Our planets beautiful wildlife, of almost every species is being wiped in slow painful deaths because of our plastic addiction! We must completely end the use of one time plastics worldwide, as well as clean up our oceans, if there is any hope for our planets wildlife! Be the change that the world needs to see! @jim_abernethy #sharklove #beautiful #tigershark #saveplanetearth #bethevoice #endonetimeuseplastics #suffering #animalabuse #sharksuffering #banonetimeuseplastics #Bethechangetheworldneeds (at Jim Abernethy's Scuba Adventures & Marine Life Art Gallery)

Nature has the Best Art! An up close shot of the beautiful Black Durgeon triggerfish reveals its true colors! These gorgeous fish which blanket many reefs always catch my eye, although from a distance they appear all black! Our coral reefs are in serious trouble due to many problems that are all man made! We mush address and fix them for the future health of our planet as well as our own exhistance on earth! Let's all refuse one time use plastics and convert to alternative energies ASAP! @jim_abernethy #blackdurgeontriggerfish #epic #globalwarmingisreal #saveocean #banonetimeuseplastics #ocean (at Jim Abernethy's Scuba Adventures & Marine Life Art Gallery)

Baby loggerhead turtle at home in the sargassum in the Gulf Stream current, where it will spend roughly 5 years, finally being large enough that many animals won't be able to eat! Sea Turtles have a very difficult life, most of which never make it to maturity and reproduce! Our own existence here on earth as a species is responsible for the death of many beautiful creatures including the sea Turtles, due to mistakes of the past! We have the knowledge, technology and some the drive to fix this, but will we make necessary changes to put our beautiful planet into a sustainable direction? I MOST DEFINITELY WILL! Please join me as our planets future and all creatures are dependent on it! Be the change the world needs! @jim_abernethy #saveplanetearth #bethechangetheworldneeds #loveanimals #bethevoice #banonetimeuseplastics #stopglobalwarming #govegan #stopkilling #lovelife #startwithonething #jimabernethysscubaadventures (at Jim Abernethy's Scuba Adventures & Marine Life Art Gallery)
