Marine and Coastal

The UF/IFAS Extension Florida Sea Grant program works closely with commercial and recreational fishing groups, marinas, environmentally-concerned groups, 4-H and other youth programs, local school teachers and marine researchers. Within this section, you will find information about the sources of microplastics, how they end up in our waters, and the threats they pose to marine life. Education resources include marine-themed curricula for K-12 grades, other educational activities/resources for teachers, and programs for lifelong learners (adults).
