World's Largest Volunteer Pollution Cleanup is Set for Saturday, September 20, 2008

Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup is the world’s largest volunteer event of its kind. Last year, 378,000 volunteers from 76 countries and 45 states cleared six million pounds of trash from oceans and waterways and recorded every piece of trash collected.

This year on September 20th 2008, more than 400,000 volunteers from around the globe will participate in the world's largest collection of trash and pollution.

From Papua New Guinea to Portland Oregon people of all ages and cultures gather on coastlines that span our planet with one simple mission, "protect our aquatic species from our debris."

They need more volunteers.

They need more help to make this a World Record Breaking event.

Do not miss this opportunity to collaborate with folks that share your same interests: 'Saving our Planet'
