Microplastics Marine Debris Clean-Up - September 15th 2024

Join Miami Waterkeeper for a Microplastic Clean-up at Crandon Park (near Marjory Stoneman Douglas Biscayne Nature Center)!

Microplastics, tiny pieces of plastic less than 5mm in size, pose a significant threat to marine life and coastal ecosystems. Not only will you get to roll up your sleeves and take action, but you'll also learn about the impacts of microplastics and why removing them from our environment is so crucial. So join us at David Kennedy Park and be part of the solution! Together, we can create a cleaner, healthier coastal environment free from the harmful effects of microplastic contamination. Stay tuned for what we plan to do with these microplastics!
