Editor’s Comments:

This 50th Issue of OCEAN commemorates an idea I had ten years ago: to create an innovative, environmental e-newsletter, linking us together through our shared challenges. Our readership now reaches about 5,000 readers worldwide. With this hallmark issue of OCEAN 50, I am renewing my commitment to be self-funded, with no advertising. Thank you to our readers, for your continuing support, in sharing our new and newer ideas. Your comments are always welcome. Thank you for reading and sharing OCEAN.

We are proud to share our 39th issue of OCEAN, showcasing solar powered tents, created by inner city High School girls through a grant from MIT. Check out our blog to get caught up on our research for biodegradable balloons; our response to the Caribbean Hurricanes; and why neonicotinoid pesticides seem to be in 75% of honey tested.
