The sky is blue, the wind is blowing through the trees, summertime is in the air, and there is litter on the ground…wait, gross. On your walks and family-outings, we encourage you to do mini clean-ups to help keep our waterways beautiful all summer long. We have long partnered with the Ocean Conservancy and we are now featured partners on their Clean Swell App! This paperless tracker is very easy to navigate. It resembles our data cards, but instead of tallying data on pen/paper, you simply tap the icon of trash you are picking up. Plus, there are cute badges to earn for each clean-up that turns colorful once you have completed a clean-up. Any time you use the app in our region you will be directly contributing to the database that helps our local governments make decisions and see trash trends!
