Live Event - Looking at Marine Plastic Pollution

Around the Americas Expedition would like to invite you to this exciting class! We are joined by the Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute’s Program Coordinator, Hannah Horsfield. Hannah earned her Bachelor of Science in Environmental Geography from Cardiff University. Join Hannah as she discusses important environmental issues, such as marine plastic pollution.

The Around the Americas Expedition is a 14-month voyage, that just launched in May. They will circumnavigate North and South America aboard the 48-foot sailboat, One Ocean. The mission focuses on scientific research, education, and community outreach to raise awareness about ocean health. Building on Captain Mark Schrader’s original 2009–2010 journey, the expedition will compare oceanic changes over the past 15 years.
