While this is sponsored by NOAA, the UN and many other agencies, it is oddly not celebrated here in the Salish Sea. Only a couple of minor events are happening, according to their event calendar. Given the huge amount of work being done here, maybe next year we can see a greater uptake in public awareness on this event.
Want to do something to celebrate? Here’s a short list.
- Take a child to the Port Townsend Marine Science Center
- Take a child to the Feiro Marine Life Center in Port Angeles.
- Go to any beach with a bag and collect garbage. You’ll find some.
