Dear Earthwatcher,

With all the attention given to resolving the complex issues related to climate change, it is sometimes easy to forget that we still have yet to deal with some of the simpler, yet equally persistent threats to our environment. I encourage you to read the articles on our work in the Bahamas and on a new study of sea turtle mortality, both of which highlight the persistent threat of pollution to coastal areas and in our oceans.

To see more of the results that you help to support, make sure you read the latest Earthwatch Science Report. We hope it will make you proud and give you hope that, together, we can solve these issues.

Kind regards,

Ed Wilson,
President and CEO, Earthwatch
