The COSEE CGOM project wrapped up its funding with a series of community forums to discuss the aftermath of the BP Oil Spill. This was in coordination with "
The Science of the Spill" website and TV series that was recently broadcast on Mississippi Public Broadcasting.
The community forums were held in each state and featured leading scientists discussing the impacts that are still faced, and what the future may bring as well.
The Mississippi Community Forum was held Thursday, October, 20, 2011, the Louisiana Community Forum was held Saturday, November 19, 2011, and the Alabama Community Forum was held Saturday, December 3, 2011. Each forum was also be broadcast to two other locations in each State in real time as well.
