The 2011 Seminar Series culminated in “Dissolving Before Our Eyes: The Acidification of Our Oceans, and Why It Matters to All of Us.”

Former US Representative Brian Baird, NOAA Senior Scientist Dick Feely, and Taylor Shellfish Company Public Policy and Communications Director Bill Dewey explained the science, the environmental and economic consequences, and the political opportunities and challenges of ocean acidification.

Over 15 organizations hosted information tables, and Taylor Shellfish Company generously provided fresh oysters.
