From Gear to Ghost: Reeling in the Problem

Date/Time: Tuesday, December 10, 2024, 3:00 PM – 4:00 PM EST

Tropical Islands Partnering on Solutions (TIPS) for Marine Debris is a bimonthly online webinar series hosted by the NOAA Marine Debris Program. The goal of the series is to help island communities connect and share perspectives from across the tropics on common marine debris issues and proposed solutions. Each webinar will feature stakeholders from federal, state/territorial, and local governments, nongovernmental organizations, universities, and industry. Discussions will include topics such as outreach and education, policy, debris management and successes as well as challenges under normal and storm conditions.

This TIPS webinar will feature presentations from various organizations who engage in abandoned, lost or otherwise discarded fishing gear (ALDFG) mitigation efforts. Presenters will speak to prevention and removal initiatives aimed to “reel in the problem” of ALDFG. Hope to catch you later.
