Kansas Zoo Connects to Oceans

Kansas may seem far from the ocean, but the Topeka Zoo is bringing the connection home this Saturday, June 8th, with World Oceans Day events. From 9 AM to 3 PM, they’ll showcase eye-opening “Washed Ashore” sculptures made from ocean trash, revealing how everyday choices—even in the heartland—directly impact marine life. It’s a powerful reminder that pollution doesn’t stop at state lines, and your plastic bottle could end up harming a sea turtle or whale. Plus, these events are included with regular zoo admission, making environmental awareness feel like part of the fun, not a lecture. If you’re in Topeka, this is your chance to learn, see art, and rethink your footprint—no matter where you live. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
