Marine Debris Sign Installed in Boston

DECEMBER 16, 2016--Working with the NOAA Marine Debris Program, the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary installed an educational display near the New England Aquarium in Boston.

The display features images of marine debris and discusses how trash can end up in our ocean, as well as its subsequent impacts on local wildlife. The installed sign focuses on the fact that marine debris is everyone’s problem and outlines the simple things that we can all do about it. This marine debris display is the first installed by the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary, with a larger installation planned for display in Provincetown, Massachusetts.
