Why does a student in Ohio care about ocean health? It's a long story - one that starts in Mexico, takes a pit stop in Aruba, and touches down in Hawaii before returning back home to the midwest. What happens to plastic in the ocean? What is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch and how did it form? What is coral, why is it bleaching, and what can we do about it? Learn all that and more from Abby Malinowski and Dr. Andrea Grottoli. This podcast is brought to you by Battelle, the world's largest private, nonprofit research and development institute.
