Pacific Gyre

Help remove floating death traps from the ocean.

The Ocean Voyages Institute / Project Kaisei tags and recovers abandoned fishing drift nets that are floating in the ocean and killing turtles, dolphins and other ocean fauna.

The Sailing Vessel Kwai is on the second leg of a recovery cruise to pick up these nets. On the first leg they recovered 100 tons of nets, and hope to do the same this time. At this point, they have embarked without any guarantee their expenses will be covered.
