One food retail chain, Iceland Foods, didn’t even make it to air before this ad was banned/blocked, leading to more publicity than the retailer may have ever expected. The ad, “Rang-tan“, was not approved as it was created by Greenpeace, a political organisation, and political advertising is absolutely not allowed on British TV.

Saving our friends and our environment is political, but advertising products and services destroying our planet is not?

Iceland Foods uploaded this Christmas commercial to their YouTube channel where it generated 3.7M views within the first 3 days of being released.

Earth's Oceans Show Decline In Microscopic Plant Life by NASA

Published on Sep 23, 2015

The world's oceans have seen significant declines in certain types of microscopic plant-life at the base of the marine food chain, according to a new NASA study. The research is the first to look at global, long-term phytoplankton community trends based on a model driven by NASA satellite data.

Diatoms, the largest type of phytoplankton algae, have declined more than 1 percent per year from 1998 to 2012 globally, with significant losses occurring in the North Pacific, North Indian and Equatorial Indian oceans. The reduction in population may have an impact on the amount of carbon dioxide drawn out of the atmosphere and transferred to the deep ocean for long-term storage. Dr. Cecile Rousseaux is featured.
