970x250 - Genome: Unlocking Life
 

Web Seminar

Join us on Thursday, April 20, 2023, from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM ET for an edition of NSTA’s Science Update about marine debris.

Our oceans are filled with items that do not belong there. Huge amounts of plastics, metals, rubber, textiles, lost fishing gear, abandoned vessels, and many more items enter the marine environment every day. This makes marine debris one of the most widespread pollution problems facing the world's ocean and waterways. 

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Marine Debris Program leads national and international efforts to research, prevent, and reduce the impacts of this global ocean challenge. Join us to learn all about the science of marine debris, and how to turn that science into solutions!

All individuals receive a certificate of participation and 100 NSTA activity points for attending the live seminar and completing the end-of-program survey. A certificate of participation is not awarded for watching the recorded version of the program.
