Alice’s fieldwork has taken her to remote islands throughout the Pacific and Indian Oceans to study marine debris on beaches, and that which has been consumed by birds, fish, and humans.

Freshly back from an expedition to Antarctica, Alice shares her experience of the frozen ocean and talks us through the complex conversation, but simple solutions, found in her new publication, Micro Plastics, Massive Problem.

Presented by The Waterpeople Podcast in collaboration with Patagonia.
