Liz Pijogge lives in Nain, Labrador, where pollution threatens the traditional Inuit food supply. Pijogge is a Northern Contaminants Researcher, and she's working with Ocean Scientist Max Liboiron to collect data about the effects of plastic pollution so they can show just how clear the threat is.

Their community-based project is part of Liboiron’s Civic Laboratory for Environmental Action Research (CLEAR), a feminist, anti-colonial lab space at Memorial University in St. John’s.
