newportFILM: The Plastic Ocean

Join us for a mission around the globe to uncover the shocking truth about what is truly lurking beneath the surface of our seemingly pristine Ocean. Stick around for a post-screening panel discussion with Commander Brad Donnelly (past Auxiliaries Officer in charge of Waste Management on an Aircraft Carrier), Dave McLaughlin (Clean Ocean Access), Charlie Enright (skipper/co-founder of 55 South), Keith Cialino (NOAA Marine Debris Program) and Philippe Beaulieu (Project Manager at PyroGenesis Canada).  This special event is presented by 11th Hour Racing, supported by Aquidneck Land Trust and in partnership with Clean Ocean Access & the Aquidneck Island “Ban The Bag” initiative.
