This spring, we launched our Marine Debris for Energy project, which involves installing fishing gear recycling bins and collecting used fishing line to be sent to a waste-to-energy plant, where it will be converted to energy! We need help installing and monitoring the bins. Monitors will need to visit the bins (you can monitor several, or "adopt" your own bin), collect the bin's contents, fill out a simple data form, and bring the used fishing line either to us or to our collection site in Seabrook.
Must have reliable transportation, attention to detail and ability to write neatly and fill out a data form.
