Description

Join Keep Pinellas Beautiful and Epic Diving FL for a beach cleanup at the Courtney Campbell Causeway! Please join Keep Pinellas Beautiful and Epic Diving FL on Earth Day for a beach cleanup at at the Courtney Campbell Causeway. Each year 80% of the debris entering our waterways is introduced from inland areas (streets, storm-drains, lakes, ponds, etc.) through our watersheds and into the global waterway, our oceans. In addition to consumer-based debris, our watersheds can transport excess nutrients which can have a detrimental impact on the health of downstream ecosystems. To combat this issue, Keep Pinellas Beautiful partners with volunteers, organizations, and community groups throughout Pinellas County to host cleanups and beautification initiatives in an effort to help to raise awareness in the community and remove harmful debris from entering into our waterways. Please join us for a rewarding evening of community improvement, engagement, and beautification. *** WHERE TO MEET: Parking is located at - 3204 Gulf to Bay Blvd, Clearwater, FL.
