It feels like we've grown up together, thanks to the generosity and enthusiasm of Elliott and Lance and the (then) MCBI crew, with collaborations in the early days of SkyTruth to illustrate fishing-the-line behavior and to create a beautiful wall map of US waters -- From Sea to Shining Sea -- that National Geographic distributed to schools throughout the country. It's great to be collaborating once again to ensure marine protected areas are actually, well, protected. Onward into the next 30!
