Watch Jenni Brandon, biological oceanography graduate student at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in San Diego share how she studies plastic pollution in an area of the ocean north of Hawaii called the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre. She encourages girls to get excited about marine biology not just because it's a fascinating field, but because their fresh energy and creative problem solving skills will be needed to solve some of the ocean's biggest problems. Look for tips on reducing your plastic footprint, and find out what it's like to live aboard a research vessel.
