The Atlantic Conservation Partnership [ACP], in partnership with The Explorers Club NYC, is getting set to host an event titled ‘Heart of the Sargasso Sea: Bermuda’s Marine Conservation’ on Thursday, October 13.

A spokesperson said, “Oceanographer Dr Sylvia A. Earle has called the Sargasso Sea the ‘golden floating forest of the Atlantic Ocean.’ Consisting of drifting mats of Sargassum weeds, it covers nearly five million square kilometres of ocean, bounded by the Gulf Stream and other currents that constantly shift its position.
