SLO County Coastal Cleanup Day 2008

"It is a curious situation that the sea, from which life first arose should now be threatened by the activities of one form of that life. But the sea, though changed in a sinister way, will continue to exist; the threat is rather to life itself." – Rachel Carson

About the Event
Coastal Cleanup Day is an international day of action dedicated to cleaning up our beaches and waterways. In SLO County last year, over 1,300 volunteers removed nearly 5,000 pounds of marine debris from 26 beaches! Learn more about the event...
