Editor’s Comments:

OCEAN 52 shares an extraordinary contrast, of how Cape Cod residents a hundred years ago experienced their island vanishing from beneath them and last month, a unique coalition of environmental groups, acted to save another island from development. We also began a new series on “Who We Are”, finding out who our Researchers are. My favorite article is about a humble group that found a way to make in-pavement driveway solar cells from used water bottles. This remarkable idea received our Environmental Innovation Award. OCEAN is the environmental education publication of Safe Harbor Environmental Services and is self- funded, with no advertising. We put this together for you, our readers, who are curious about local and large scale, environmental trends, anomalies and unusual events. This is a public domain publication and is yours to share. We begin with suggestions in our continuing series “Staying Safe”.
