For the past decade, Captain Moore and the ORV Alguita, have been researching the effects of marine plastic pollution in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre. Captain Moore is now recognized as a pioneer and accepted expert in this field of research. As we approach our 15th year, responses to our data tell us the world is beginning to listen... so there is hope.
To acknowledge AMRF's anniversary and the significant work it has accomplished, we are pleased to invite you to join our commemoration in honoring Captain Moore on October 25, 2009. This event also give AMRF the opportunity to thank the many who have supported us in the past. The research must continue. Without funding, the research comes to a halt, education and awareness dwindle and the "plastic toilet bowl" continues to build and wreak havoc with marine life, potentially entering the human food chain. We are doing more than passing a legacy or synthetic pollution to the next generation... we ARE living within our own legacy now. Join us in fighting this "tragedy to the commons..."
