Hosted by: EarthEcho International

Join My NASA Data for a special session to explore the Ocean Circulation and Garbage Patches Storymap with EarthEcho International, a leading environmental and ocean education nonprofit organization founded and led by Philippe Cousteau. We will explore data visualizations from My NASA Data to connect watersheds, runoff, and ocean circulation to the global issue of ocean plastics. EarthEcho will walk through EarthEcho Expedition: PlasticSeas classroom and demonstrate the real-world impacts of plastics pollution through live shorebird bolus dissection to investigate what happens as plastics break down in our marine ecosystems!
