Documentary Screening: 'The Great Pacific Garbage Patch'

Join us at the Mission Valley Library in San Diego on June 17 from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. for an eye-opening evening focused on ocean conservation.

At 5:30 p.m., we’ll be screening a powerful documentary on the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a massive accumulation of marine plastic pollution in the Pacific Ocean. The film examines the environmental and wildlife impacts of plastic waste, highlighting how it threatens ecosystems far from shore.

Following the screening, stay for a dynamic panel discussion featuring experts from the Scripps Seabird Scientist, the Surfrider Foundation, the Save the Albatross Coalition, and Captain Charles Moore, the pioneering researcher who first discovered the Great Pacific Garbage Patch.
