Have you ever wondered what Ocean Acidification, marine debris, poaching, and pollution mean? Well, I am here to help. The first step to improving our world is to understand the issues we face. Only then can we work to prevent and counter them. Here I share my adventures in protecting and improving our oceans in hopes that you will be inspired to help as well. Even if it's just spread the word. This way we can all live up to my motto: “From the mountain to the ocean, everything is connected.”

Galveston Bay Oil Spill

So this is another oil spill the US can add to its rap sheet.

Plastic Poison List
Everyday, people use something plastic. It could be disposable or even a long term use of that particular plastic. But when you're done, you'll probably end up throwing it away right?
Here are some of the things I've thought about that people use that end up in the trash, that goes to the landfill and in some way or another, the ocean:
