Utah's International Coastal Cleanup 2007
The International Coastal Cleanup engages people to remove trash and debris from the world's beaches and waterways, to identify the sources of debris, and to change the behaviors that cause pollution.
Join volunteers during the Ocean Conservancy's International Coastal Cleanup - the single largest one day cleanup event in the nation and possibly even the world - to cleanup Utah's beaches and waterways.
Getting involved is as simple as 1-2-3
- Choose a date, time & location for the event that you will attend.
- Register to participate in Utah's International Coastal Cleanup by clicking on the "Take a day to leave a Legacy" banner
- Come to the cleanup event that you registered for and help clean up
