About This Activity
Students will gain a better understanding of where marine debris comes from and how it ends up in our oceans, lakes, and rivers. We will describe how “sea trash” hurts animals, harms the environment, and how it can even end up in our food. Additionally, students will learn how we apply marine technology to the marine environment, that includes the design, construction, and operation of vessels, offshore structures, and the equipment used for exploration, resource gathering and scientific data collection. Includes a field trip and/guest speaker.
