Dear Friend,
On this Earth Day, we honor bold actions taken 50 years ago to collectively work towards a healthier planet, and recognize the challenges that lay ahead. In this moment, with the world on pause, we have a unique opportunity to reflect on our blue planet. We get to watch nature recover right before our eyes, as bird song returns and the air clears.
During these last weeks the ocean, the great ventilator of the planet, has been given room to breathe. This is a great reminder that nature is resilient and can bounce back quickly. Perhaps it will inspire us to be bolder as we look towards our new future.
In the spirit of this vision, and as we celebrate our blue planet this week, MARE is excited to announce the launch of the Deep Sea Robotic Challenge. With this pilot program, being piloted by students at Richmond High School, we strive to inspire the next generation of innovators to help solve marine research challenges. And you can help too! If you are interested in learning more and joining our team as a mentor or judge, please contact Natasha Benjamin.
