JUNK — a raft made with 15,000 plastic bottles — is ready to set sail! Last week, Anna Cummins wrote about the JUNK voyage‘s
effort to call attention to the frightening plastic pollution in the
oceans — and now you’re invited to the bon voyage party.

Meet Dr. Marcus Eriksen and Joel Paschal — both of Algalita Marine Research Foundation — before they set sail on their 6 week journey from Long Beach to Hawaii. Then follow their progress on the JUNK blog!
