Blue Gym Project Aligned with Earth Day 2024 Theme to Combat Plastic Pollution
It’s Earth Day!
The goal of the Blue Gym project is to mitigate plastic and other debris from entering coastal ecosystems by incorporating litter cleanup into outdoor physical activity and recreation and to promote litter cleanup as a form of health-enhancing physical activity.
Blue Gym Project Status: We currently are seeking funding for a randomized controlled trial to test refined visual communications promoting the combination of physical activity and litter cleanup.
Be sure to check out our partners at UGA Marine Extension and their projects to keep trash from getting into the ocean! Find out how you can participate in a cleanup event along the Georgia coast with our partners at Keep Golden Isles Beautiful!
Congrats to Micole Sy and Alana Gantley on Presenting Their Research!
Two PACE Lab members presented their research at the 2024 CURO Research Symposium on April 8. Micole Sy presented a poster titled, “The Association between Physical Activity and Caffeine Intake”. Alana Gantley presented a poster titled, “The Difference in Caffeine Consumption between Men and Women Compared to Their Physical Activity”. So proud of both of you!
