U海角社区 Ph.D. student Chyanne Yoder seeks to prevent plastic pollution at its source by piloting systems for reusable food containers in 海角社区 coastal communities, reducing the need for single-use foodware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ph.D. student in anthropology and environmental policy at the University of 海角社区 is championing this cause through the Marine Debris Project alongside her adviser, University of 海角社区 Professor of Anthropology and Climate Change Cindy Isenhour<\/a>. The project, which is funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)\u2019s Marine Debris Challenge grant through 海角社区 Sea Grant, seeks to protect 海角社区\u2019s delicate ocean ecosystems and the health of its coastal communities.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
