Participated in any Ocean Day/Week/Month activities? Please consider taking 10-12 minutes to complete the Ocean Week Follow-Up Survey that is part of my Master's research on ocean literacy evaluation!

Today marks a very sad day as the world lost a passionate and knowledgeable marine biologist and I have lost a fun and motivating mentor, friend, and family.

Life is fragile, but the impact that a single individual can have on the world is massive. RIP papa Eike of @CoreSea1

One of the things I miss most about Ucluelet is its gorgeous sunsets.

Still can't believe that I was recently in @Alaska with @SOAlliance and @LindbladExp for their 2019 Accelerator! Thank you everyone for imparting me with your knowledge, enthusiasm, and passion for your work!

Found these as I stepped out of my vehicle outside a city park.

The curbside is not an ashtray neither are the woods! Improper butt disposal can lead to fires! @TalkButts

Found this wonderful piece of infrastructure outside a community center, but unfortunately, it was the only ashtray we found on the whole premise and both openings were jammed by empty cigarette packets! Also, we still found 370 cigarette butts in our survey area!

It's been a busy weekend conducting litter surveys and mapping (along with one small cleanup). Three surveys, 1929 pieces of litters later, we found over 94% were cigarette butts @TalkButts @litterati

Did you know that cigarette butts are made of cellulose acetate which is a type of plastic?
