Last month, Information Press focused on the North Pacific Gyre and the role Americans can take to reduce the use of plastics from ending up in the landfill. This month we focus on local coastal clean up. As the Ocean series continues, we will take a look at sustainable seafood and how aquariums are leading the way in conservancy. Stay tuned, as we “call out” local grocery stores for harboring unsustainable seafood, and give kudos to those who are making great strides forward!
