What is it all about?
The world's largest one-day volunteer effort
Involving some 400 000 people in 70-100 countries who gather to clean up trash at beaches, lakes, oceans and mangroves all over the world.
In Singapore, it is coordinated by the Raffles Museum of Biodiversity Research, NUS and the Nature Society.

But………
So, record data meticulously!
The trash gathered will be categorized and recorded, and theconsolidated data will be sent to the Ocean Conservancy to be analyzed.
Find the sources of marine debris and develop effective pollution control strategies to help prevent the problem.
We are not trash collectors!!!
