Jesse Mechling, Director of Education at Provincetown Center for Coastal
Studies, presents "Trashing Our Oceans", the second lecture in the Ocean
Future Series.

For thousands of years, the ocean has been a human dumping ground for all
our waste. In the 21st Century we are starting to discover that all that
waste is affecting life in the ocean. Marine Debris ranks as one of the top
threats to our marine environment. Learn about this scourge, how it is
related to climate change, and what we can do to reduce its impacts.

The Ocean Futures Lecture Series looks at some of the largest threats
facing the ocean as we begin a new century. It will explore our local
changing marine ecosystem and highlight some of the more unusual events
over the past year, while offering solutions to help protect our fragile
blue planet.
