A major hotel group that owns more than 5,600 hotels around the world is phasing out miniature toiletries in its rooms — switching instead to bulk-sized products by 2021 to cut down on plastic waste.

@dumlcommunity has been a huge part of my @DukeEnvironment and @DukeMarineLab experience, and am so glad to have spent this summer continuing my work with K-12 students and educators across NC. Thanks for another memorable summer of outreach at @BGCCoastalPlain!
And that's a wrap for our summer outreach at Boys & Girls Club! We'd like to thank these stellar Student Scientists (and those not pictured) for being helpful mentors this summer, and @NiemanCassandra@AliBoden1 for making it happen! #STEAMteam#walterfamfund

Tourists are swarming Uluru before it's banned from climbing in a few months--posing a great threat to the environment and people's safety. What can be done to minimize the harm before this Oct 26th deadline? #sustainabletourism https://t.co/1beRYSY5aH
The climate crisis got just 15 minutes of attention across four hours of the Democratic debate this week. And that time wasn't particularly well spent.
That's why the issue deserves its own debate. https://t.co/6a2gDdw1lc
We’re kicking off the second day of our Marine Debris Workshop! Teachers practice a classroom exploration activity to do with their students.

Had so much fun sharing our program with NC educators at the1st day of the @dumlcommunity 2019 Marine Debris Workshop! Here’s a look at our beach cleanup, trash cleaning, and debris quantification. #EEDebris@JennaMHartley@AliBoden1
Thanks @clifgray for taking time out of your day yesterday to show some of our Student Scientists how you and the @MarineUAS lab use drones for marine research. We love having @DukeMarineLab students mentor our local high school students! #STEAMteam
Ali Boden, recent grad and member of @dumlcommunity, explains a toxicity experiment with cigarette filters & tobacco. Different concentrations of “tobacco tea” cause different rates of mortality in sea monkeys. Perfect for showing the effect of cigarettes on marine life!
As an environmentalist who loves to travel, it was wonderful to reflect on what makes a green traveler through writing a blog post for @globeandtribe recently. From planning the trip to actually being there, you can find some useful tips at https://t.co/Sb0aE3yNrj :)
We're excited to kick-off a great summer of outreach and research with these enthusiastic high school Student Scientists! Look out for these smiling faces in the Carteret County community as we provide STEM education activities at various summer camps! #STEAMteam#walterfamfund
Say hello to our 2019 student scientists 👋 These high school students will be performing STEM outreach in the community all summer! Here they are learning how to code with @Ozobot robots #walterfamfund
Spent my Friday morning enjoying my favorite coffee with the people who roast it! Thanks for a delicious Tasting at Ten on #Kaleidoscope@counter_culture, hope to come back again.
Check out the awesome marine debris programming NC teachers are implementing in their classrooms as part of @dumlcommunity's partnership with @NCSU_EELab@JennaMHartley#eedebris⚡️ “DUML Marine Debris Programming in NC Schools”

Taking our @Ozobot activities to a whole new level with freestyle coding and a 6'x3' path. Our middle school students at @BGCCoastalPlain sure like a fun challenge! #STEM#walterfamfund
