Okay, this article (titled 'Following The Flow of Pollutants') is very important. Even though I feel like almost everything Scripps Institute of Oceanography (SIO) is important, this one is finally doing something. Most of what Scripps does nowadays is educating and researching about pollution and such, but this is a good example of what they try to do. Doing something that will educate many, and finally doing something that will help test which water is healthy to swim in (or do anything in) and what is not.

They are using top of the line equipment to test (most/all of) our beaches and inform and warn the masses. As the years go on into this millennium, our oceans are goign to get progressively more disgusting/polluted, Scripps is doing all they can.
