Happy #InternationalWomensDay! We feel inspired by the hardworking women contributing to ocean conservation on our team and beyond. We hope to empower girls and young women by giving them spaces to explore STEM and marine science opportunities through our education programs.
Our Education Team in Mexico took part in the Chacala Bird Festival. Macroplastics and microplastics have detrimental effects on birds. It is important to limit your use and support policies that reduce single-use plastics.
