Rob Moir, Ph.D., outstanding by Winter Island Lighthouse talks about citizen science saving ocean ecosystems, creating Salem Sound Coastwatch and the ongoing international work of the Ocean River Institute. Starting locally in one harbor, to one small region (Salem Sound) to the state and on to the nation with the president's National Ocean Policy, people at all levels of government are working in concert with one another to save essential ocean habitats and diverse ecosystems. For information on current ocean conservation campaigns visit www.oceanriver.org P.S. Since this video was made, Salem's coal-powered power plant has been shut down and the coal cleaned up. Incrementally, fish by fish and occasionally leaps and bounds (a harmful algal bloom bill through Congress and into law), we are conserving and bettering the health of oceans, rivers and watersheds.
