This as-yet unnammed gelatonous sea creature has been tentatively identified as a new species of mollusc (related to snails and nudibranchs). It was photographed drifting in the deep waters over Davidson Seamount, off the Central California Coast.

Education & Resources

Here at Save Our Shores we believe education is a very important and effective tool for addressing many of the environmental issues that we are faced with today, particularly those that impact our marine environment. We feel it is important to provide up to date information on key topics such as marine debris and Marine Protected Areas,  as well as to find fun and interactive ways to disseminate our information.  Whether we are down on the beach coordinating a cleanup and talking about the hazards of marine debris with community volunteers or in the classroom playing one of our marine debris games with students, we take education seriously and believe it should always be fun and informative!
