Wow!
The International Coastal Cleanup came to Worcester, Massachusetts yesterday in the form of the Indian Lake Cleanup event. Over ninety men, women, and children collected debris from the shores and mudflats and recorded what they found for The Ocean Conservancy. Later this week I will send our data to COASTSWEEP, the Massachusetts arm of this massive, worldwide marine cleanup event. I’m still crunching numbers, but we cleaned more than 8.5 miles of shoreline, filled 43 bags with garbage, and hauled approximately 660 pounds of trash off the lake. Not bad for four hours work!
