Help clear the trash from our beaches and waterways! Join hundreds of thousands of volunteers Sept. 21 for the International Coastal Cleanup. The International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) is the largest beach and waterway cleanup program with data collection in the world. Volunteers from around the globe and participate each year—clearing tons of trash from coastlines, rivers and lakes. Take action to improve the health of our oceans and waterways—anyone can participate in the International Coastal Cleanup. Reasons to participate: Save the lives of innocent marine wildlife by removing debris that can be deadly **** Help make our oceans and waterways safe for swimming, fishing and drinking **** Share a special day with family, friends and co-workers **** Contribute to marine debris research by filling out your datacard **** Raise awareness of the problem of pollution **** The Ocean Conservancy is encouraging us to have a greener cleanup so we are asking everyone to please use buckets where they can. They save on bags. And reusable gloves can be washed and used year after year! Home Depot on Cochran Boulevard has donated buckets and gloves. These will be given out, while supplies last, to the groups that continually support this cleanup effort. The first 500 to sign up get a T-shirt!
