The Sand Protocol
While sand beaches comprise just over 30% of the world’s ice-free shorelines, the collective idea of the sand beach can sometimes cast a much bigger shadow.
That imagined beach can even have an influence on other fields of science — like plastic pollution.
Featuring Dr. Max Liboiron.

Liboiron’s essay, “Plastics in the Gut,” published in Orion Magazine.

The pick for the first book is Trace: Memory, History, Race, and the American Landscape by geologist and writer Lauret Savoy.
