5 Gyres - Understanding Plastic Pollution Through Exploration, Education, and Action

The 5 Gyres Project will have visited all 5 Gyres soon.  We're collecting samples of plastic pollution from around the world and sharing them with the Algalita Marine Research Foundation, a partner in the project.  The samples are brought to their lab, where they all the plastic inside is divided into different sizes, colors and types.  The goal is to adequately describe and monitor plastic pollution so that we can find the best solution to the problem.
