AECO’s efforts to combat marine plastic pollution get another boost as AECO member Ship to Shore donates 3,321 USD from their 1% for the Planet fund towards Clean Seas education, reduction and cleanups. Ship to Shore has committed to making a second donation at a later point in time. Thanks to Ship to Shore’s initiative, AECO is now a registered non-profit partner with 1% for the Planet, a global movement that connects donors with environmental causes. A big thank you to Ship to Shore for supporting Clean Seas!

Ushuaia, Argentina will be one of the film locations for The Revenant, staring Leonardo DiCaprio! Ushuaia is a small town but big on international travel and shipping. It’s also the hub of our gear/boot rental program for travelers to Antarctica and an incredibly beautiful part of the world. Don't forget to wear layers if you're visiting in winter.
