Acid Ocean SOS

More than 100 fishing boats, sail boats, skiffs and kayaks took to the waters of Homer Sunday, Sept. 6, as commercial fishermen, mariners and others from coastal communities spelled out an urgent message to protect jobs and fisheries from the threat of ocean acidification. The boats arranged themselves in the ocean to spell out "Ocean Acid SOS" as part of a "Voices for the Ocean" event hosted by the Alaska Marine Conservation Council (AMCC) and Sustainable Fisheries Partnership (SFP) with International Aerial Artist John Quigley (www.SpectralQ.com).
