Oil Spill Science for Healthy Island Communities
A Sea Grant Oil Spill Science Outreach Program Workshop
Continue the conversation: Join the Sea Grant Oil Spill Science Outreach team for a workshop entitled "Oil Spill Science for Healthy Island Communities". Sea Grant specialists will share how the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill impacted the Gulf of Mexico environment and the people living there. They will also share how they work to incorporate science into planning, preparedness, and response, and will facilitate discussions on these topics.
Details will soon be posted on their website.
