Ka' ara - Turning The Tide On AMD

Ka' ara - Turning The Tide On AMD

Season 3 - Episode 26

This was probably the most fantastic episode to date! Ugh.. Plastic. Is. Everywhere. AMD, or Anthropogenic Marine Debris, outnumbered plankton by a ratio of 6:1 a decade ago; imagine what that number looks like today?! It is pervasive and entirely man-made. Joining us for the discussion, is American Geoarcheologist/Anthropologist, Dr. Dale Simpson, to help bring to light the issues of AMD. He discusses how AMD is effecting the oceans and island of Rapa Nui and highlight how his research and initiatives are addressing the issue. We talk top-down and bottom-up strategies, how we can quantify AMD on our beaches, and what we can do to fight back to heal mother nature. It really can be as simple as following the 7R's and 10 Bans. Join us and Dale on the 3rd weekend in September for a Geology on the Rocks Research Project slash Beach Clean Up slash Community Bonding Moment. It's time to heal the broken arm under the bandaid and start building ties with our environment!

Details will soon follow.

Until then, remember to be cool, stay tuned, and keep it on the rocks!
