Teaming up with educatorsPOP, Inc. joins UNCW educating undergraduates about plastic marine debris using our open-ocean samples collected from various aquatic regions in the world. We supervise lab research instrumentation, encourage scientific method, and help incubate progressive solutions to plastic pollution. On a global scale, Plastic Ocean Project, Inc. is joining Reach the World and Beautiful Nation educating over one million students from around the world as we circumnavigate the globe on Makulu, a 43' sailing vessel that will bring ocean science into the classroom.
