Purchase a Walking Tree Brewery Mangrove Series IPA at any of your favorite bars, restaurants or craft beer retailers and we'll donate a portion of every IPA sold to back to orca ORCA and the amazing work they are doing. @teamORCA #IPAsForWaterways

@TeamORCA Thank you for your advocacy! ORCA monitors fish health, maps pollution, and restores shoreline habitats. Healthy waters help the #BrevardIndianRiverLagoon

Today BTT hosted a media event and panel discussion as part of our #WinBackOurWater campaign to highlight the challenges facing the Indian River Lagoon and the progress being made.

Velvet belly #lanternsharks are #bioluminescent, but have never been seen glowing at depth before. While in #Norway with Nicolas Straube (@UiB, @UiB_museet), we attempted to film this phenomenon. Thanks @TeamORCA for archival bioluminescence footage. youtube.com/watch?v=zHWVFD…

#FloridaTech is once again teaming up with @TeamORCA to bring attention to the Indian River Lagoon – and to bring science to young learners. news.fit.edu/academics-rese…

Glyphosate is another contaminant impacting Florida fisheries. New research from the Ocean Research and Conservation Association @TeamORCA found glyphosate in 125 fish sampled from the #IndianRiverLagoon, raising new concerns about its use in aquatic systems. #WaterQuality

By sharing her fascination with the luminous deep, scientist, author, and conservationist @TeamORCA sheds light on why it matters. Explore with her: go.whoi.edu/edie-widder

Students had so much fun building an ROV with @TeamORCA during their Science Institute of Discovery class on June 16th! Missy Weiss, ORCA's Director of Citizen Science & Education, assisted students alongside her intern, Katy, to help make their ROVs come to life! 🙂
