What do we have to do in order to be in this group? It's a really interesting and cool organiztion actually.. It's amazing how that turtle survived after 7 years with that peice of plastic around it. It is truly wonderful for you guys to help all the sea creatures who are in need of help.. You guys are wonderful =D

Hi, My name is Karleen and I just wanted to ask How old I have to be, to be a part of this crew? I would honestly love to be a part of this! It's amazing what you guys do. It's a wonderful thing actually, saving the sea creatures who are in need sounds exciting, except the part where you see them with a stomach full of plastics... So what do I have to do, to be a part of this?
Hello! My name is Terra and our environmental systems class has just started a unit on pollution. We are excited to follow your progress and ask you questions during your trip.

Hello BOCES!
Just wanted to say that I graduated from SUNY Binghamton (that's what it used to be called back in '82.) How are things along the Susquehanna River? Do you have pollution problems there? Do you have any collaborations with the Biology teachers at Binghamton University?
Hello to Anonymoous from BOCES, Binghamton, NY! We will be finding out how our Susquehanna River's health is soon. We are eager to learn more about pollution in the ocean and wonder about the relationship upstream to the relationship downstream and into our beautiful oceans! Can we post pictures of our findings here?
Ms.H and BOCES students- it would be wonderful if you want to share pictures of your findings with us all!! I will send you an email with more details. Thank you! -Holly Gray-

Hello, my name is Micah and I am curious about chemical releases from plastic. Can plastic cause chemical imbalances or other issues in the water? Also what kinds of chemicals or other pollutants can plastics give off? Thank you for you time.

Hi, my name is Aaron and I am from River Ridge High School in New Port Richey, Florida. I would first like to applaud your work in the environment and wish you good luck and weather in your travels. Secondly, what is the most abundant piece of plastic that you are finding in gyres and do you think the removal of this piece of plastic would significantly reduce the adverse effects of plastic pollution?

I was just wondering what kind of discoveries do you find in your voyages? Are they great, strange, incredible, etc. Because I think that being a part of the crew must be fun and exciting, is it?
