Last week, @oceanconservancy.org had the awesome opportunity to join U.S. SailGP Team's Hans Henken for a tour of Bureo.
This California-based facility collects and recycles end-of-life fishing gear and turns the materials into new, everyday products, and a Global Ghost Gear Initiative partner.
Ghost gear is the most prevalent and deadliest form of debris in our ocean. And through our Protect Where We Play initiative, the U.S. SailGP Team has made the fight to combat ghost gear personal—to the team, the sail community, our ocean and all who depend on it.

Our ocean is warming. Coral reefs are bleaching. Seabirds are starving. A super El Niño is moving in the Pacific.
Right now, there is a "cold blob" in the North Atlantic. No, this doesn't mean climate change is slowing down. It's an alarming sign for our planet.
