So now you are ready to eat at sea. There are some interesting activities you could try related to what we are doing on Pride II. You could keep a log of the food your family eats for a week as well as the amount and type of trash produced. What would happen in a week if a portion of paper and food were placed in a container of salt water, and pieces of plastic were placed in another similar container? Try it and find out. You could also do some research on the history of ocean dumping. The oceans are an incredible resource which have often been abused. Jason sets a good example for all of us. His motivation and determination are reminders that dedication toward a goal can make it a reality. What is it you really enjoy? Make a list. What can you do today to take you one step closer to one of those goals? It could be as simple as finding a book on the subject. Jason's life shows us what can happen when you take control of your life. There is only one test question for this activity, and the answer is short. In forty years you should ask yourself, did I enjoy the way I lived my life? If you answer "yes," you passed.
