This blog shares the research experiences and findings conducted at University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW faculty and students) in conjunction with Plastic Ocean Project. Earlier posts share open-ocean sampling and adventures in the North and South Atlantic, the South Pacific and the North Pacific Great Pacific Garbage Patch. Outreach and education is the primary purposes to bring global awareness to an issue that has reached a crisis level in the marine environment.
Watch Good Morning America tomorrow morning (Wed. Feb. 3) to be brought up to date on the 5 Gyres Project and Algalita's recent research on plastic pollution.
Please check your local listings for more information.
Way to go Algalita, Marcus Erikson, and Anna Cummins!
