SUMMARY:International Coastal Clean Up 2019 - 73rd Street Miami Beach
DESCRIPTION:The 34th annual International Coastal Cleanup Day is harnessing the “Power of People” to Fight Ocean Trash!  Join Surfrider Miami for the world’s largest\, one-day volunteer effort for our oceans and waterways\, and show your commitment to reducing marine debris\, along with volunteers from across the globe! \nVolunteerCleanup.org organizes Miami-Dade’s local participation in this global event with 40+ simultaneous shoreline cleanups around the county and is made possible by the generous support of our sponsor Covanta\, with additional support from Capital One Café\, Wells Fargo\, and Miami Beach Suncare. \nWe will provide garbage bags\, data collection cards\, sunscreen\, insect repellent\, and a souvenir tote bag with this year’s marine animal theme\, the Pelican!  Community Service hours also provided.  Where possible\, please have guests in your party RSVP individually so we can ensure they get all the information and details about the event and so that we can accurately plan for turnout. \nMeeting Spot: on the sand at 73rd street. Look for the blue Surfrider Tent \nVolunteers should: \n\nDress for the weather and wear appropriate foot-wear. We recommend closed-toed shoes.\nSunglasses and hat are highly recommended\nBring gloves if you have them (we suggest reusable working\, gardening or dish gloves that you can pick up at the grocery store/home depot) We will have some onsite but cannot guarantee they will be in your size!\nBring water in a reusable container. Let’s reduce waste and refuse single-use disposable plastic water bottles\, where possible. We will have a cooler for cold water refills.\nVolunteers must check-in and sign waivers before any materials (bags\, cards\, or gift bags can be distributed) An online waiver will be sent out in advance and paper waivers on the day-of.\n**If you are under 18 and coming without a parent or guardian\, you must have a parent/guardian sign the waiver form in advance \n\nBefore the event\, download the Ocean Conservancy’s CleanSwell app to participate in the Citizen Science activity to log\, tally and measure the impact of your cleanup.  It’s easier and more fun than using the paper data cards! \n  \nAbout the International Coastal Cleanup: \nScientists estimate that more than 17 billion pounds of plastic enter our ocean every year threatening marine life from corals polyps to sharks\, the health of people\, and local economies \nOver the past 34 years\, Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup has brought together nearly 13 million people from over 150 countries to collect nearly 250 million pounds of trash along our coastlines and waterways. \nEvery year during Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup\, volunteers comb lakes\, rivers\, and beaches around the world for trash picking up everything imaginable along the world’s shorelines: cigarette butts\, food wrappers\, abandoned fishing gear and even automobiles and kitchen appliances. \nBy volunteering at ICC\, you will be actively participating in a global citizen science project\, not only by removing marine debris but by also cataloging and tallying what you find using the Ocean Conservancy’s data collection cards or Clean Swell app. The resulting item-by-item\, location-by-location Ocean Trash Index that Ocean Conservancy compiles each year provides the only global snapshot of the marine debris littering coasts and waterways around the world.
