Rapanui makes eco-fashion cool for young people. Organic clothing that is eco-friendly, ethical and sustainable. Rapa Nui, the Green clothing company. And - now a clothing sponsor for Sail Our Seas!! So excited and we can't wait to get going so we can pull on their Tees :) 

Listening to Emily Penn 'talk story' about her travels in the Pacific last night at Turtle Bay resort was fascinating! Not only did Emily remind everyone that travelling is good for the soul, she also highlighted the environmental issues that we must all consider: plastic pollution, electricity, waste, food, fish... the list goes on. SOS was inspired! Let's go sailing!! :)

What do you see? Ocean treasures & Ocean trash. Natural vs Unnatural. Sail Our Seas will be monitoring ocean pollution as we voyage across the Atlantic, and in to the Pacific. We will document everything we find. Want to help tell the story? Send us a message, why not?! 

I spy artist Benjamin Hope outside the Royal Geographical Society in London. Spent the afternoon researching the work of the Mana Expedition in the Foyle Reading Room. Fascinating stuff! 

Let's celebrate the great things we do together and the great women who inspire us to keep on working towards equality. Katherine Routledge was amongst those women who were not afraid to speak up in a crowd. Today  we take time to consider the work of individuals such as Katherine - and how they are still making an impact on the modern world. 

A pod of sperm whales have been observed with a deformed bottlenose dolphin in their midst! During a research trip to the Azores, near the island of Pico, biologist Alexander Wilson and Jens Krause spotted the whales with their new companion. More links and info via Tree Hugger.
