Join Erica Cirino, photojournalist, scientist, and artist, as she discusses her book Thicker Than Water: The Quest for Solutions to the Plastic Crisis.

As plastic pollution piles up, time to negotiate real solutions is running out, and meanwhile plastics’ impacts on the Earth and our health grow worse. Erica hopes to share important facts and immediate actions we can take to help our communities and protect our health from plastics. This is a presentation on Erica's findings and current work communicating science-backed facts and solutions to the plastic pollution, featuring original reporting, research, and images from the frontlines of the plastic crisis (including from the middle of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch).
