Join the Founders Fireside Chat to hear from Bill Ferrara and Lindsey Mooney, the founders of the Center for International Reef Conservation and Ecology.

The Center for International Reef Conservation and Ecology (CIRCE) is a nonprofit currently based in Rhode Island. Founded in 2021, our mission is to save coral reefs and to be an advocate for education and awareness surrounding the importance of the ocean ecosystem. CIRCE’s current work focuses on the proliferation of microplastics in quahogs on the coast of Rhode Island. In the near future, we plan to expand our research to improve the relationship humans have with the ocean, from usage to health impacts.

Presented in collaboration with RI Hub. Moderated by Annette Tonti.
