Educating Our Youth


In July, COA’s Education Coordinator, Kari Martin conducted presentations to children at the Rumson Oceanic Free Library and Asbury Park Library. The children, ranging from ages 1 to 12, learned about ocean pollution and our individual roles in stopping the sources of this pollution.

At the Oceanic Free Library in Rumson, Kari gave an interactive story-telling presentation of Joel Harper’s book “Sea Change” combined with an introduction to COA’s long history of ocean protection and advocacy, as well as Beach Sweeps data analysis and promotion.

At the Asbury Park Library, young library patrons learned how pollution in their neighborhoods reach the ocean with a presentation and video based on Joel Harper’s other book, "All the Way to the Ocean."
