Anti-colonial science

CLEAR is a feminist and anti-colonial laboratory. But what does that mean?

Public Meeting on plastics in fish caught in Portugal Cove/St. Phillips (1/23/17)

We are holding this open public meeting to share findings on plastics in food cod, and receive feedback from attendees on how we might proceed in the future. Everyone is welcome!

Animal respect guidelines

What are anticolonial ways of respecting animals in research that include but exceed institutional values of replacement (of animals with non-animals), reduction (of the number of animals needed), and refinement (of studies)?

Micoplastic sampling on rocky beaches

Microplastics can easily disappear between rocks when beaches aren’t sandy. We are working to develop the Fogo Protocol

Microplastic Survey

Microplastics are less than 5mm in size, so they are often missed in beach clean ups. This protocol counts microplastics on sandy beaches.

Marine Debris Tracker

Your can use beach clean ups to create data about local marine macroplastics. This protocol uses the Marine Debris Tracker so data goes into a public data set that scientists can use.
