How else can I get involved?

Here are a few other ways you can extend a helping hand to albatrosses:

  • Ensure your fish comes from sustainable fisheries. Check out the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch list (also an app), and look for eco-labels to find out which seafoods are environmentally sustainable.

  • Recycle plastic. Much of the plastic pollution at sea comes from the land. Join a beach clean-up program and dispose of your litter responsibly to help reduce the impact of plastics in the marine environment.

  • Read a children’s book. Visit the ACAP website for a list of children’s books with a conservation message.

  • Visit a nesting colony virtually. Watch the Cornell Lab’s live streaming Albatross Bird Cam.
