The 5 Gyres Institute in partnership with Algalita Marine Research Foundation, The University of Hawaii, and The United Nations Safe Planet campaign will announce the 5 Gyres 2012 expedition schedule next week. As in previous expeditions, we'll be aboard Pangaea Exploration's flagship sailing vessel, Sea Dragon gathering plastic pollution data as well as data on chemical density in collected micro-fragments of plastic as well as ambient sea water. Official details and full press release coming soon. Stay tuned.
