And It's not just cleaning up ! You will be part of a worldwide advocacy against marine debris pollution. We will provide you with ICC data cards where you and your team will record and classify the trash that you will find. This data will be forwarded to the Ocean Conservancy and can be used for pollution prevention efforts, can influence legislation and can help spread awareness and further educate the public on the problem of marine debris.

1. Invite more friends and family to join ... volunteers work in teams of 4 people. There's no limit to the number of teams that you can form! (Don't worry if you can't form a team - we'll take care of assigning you to a team on-site)
