I visited Falmouth Harbour, Cornwall, to learn about Seabins and their use worldwide to collect plastics from our oceans. #NationalMarineWeek

A massive thank you to Vicki and the team for showing me around the harbour and giving up their time to help me learn more about the Seabin.

US Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)
Forces and Interactions: Pushes and Pulls
- K-PS2-1. Plan and conduct an investigation to compare the effects of different strengths or different directions of pushes and pulls on the motion of an object.
Interdependent Relationships in Ecosystems: Animals, Plants, and Their Environment
- K-ESS3-3. Communicate solutions that will reduce the impact of humans on the land, water, air, and/or other living things in the local environment.*
Engineering Design
- K-2-ETS1-1. Ask questions, make observations, and gather information about a situation people want to change to define a simple problem that can be solved through the development of a new or improved object or tool.
- 3-5-ETS1-1. Define a simple design problem reflecting a need or a want that includes specified criteria for success and constraints on materials, time, or cost.
- 3-5-ETS1-2. Generate and compare multiple possible solutions to a problem based on how well each is likely to meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
Structure, Function, and Information Processing
- 4-LS1-1. Construct an argument that plants and animals have internal and external structures that function to support survival, growth, behavior, and reproduction
