Garbage Monsters

Take a look at this!  

In our "Media Items" section I've posted a short news item about a great 1 minute video titled "Garbage Monsters."  Not only does this video have an important message, but it shows some real skill with great camera angles and some imaginative animation.  This is one of three short videos that were winners in the Youth Outlook Multimedia Contest which was part of the NCSE 11th National Conference on Science, Policy, and the Environment, Jan. 2011.

While this wasn't filmed in the Pacific Northwest, the message is clearly applicable to all of our coastal areas.  And this and the other winning videos were so nicely done and so inspriing that I just had to share them.

I'm not the only one excited by these videos.  Garbage Monsters was a weekly pick of NPR's Science Friday.
