How does plastic and trash get into our waterways and the ocean? Most of it comes from inland sources such as littered streets and parking lots. YOU can be part of the solution!
1. PREVENT IT Say "No Thanks" to single-use disposable items. Use re-usable bottles, mugs & shopping bags. Put your trash where it belongs and NEVER LITTER. Encourage others to never litter too. |

2. PICK IT UP Join an organized cleanup event, or make a promise to pickup litter every day! |
