In Celebration of Earth Day, ECO SWIM® by Aqua Green®, Everything But Water, and The LYCRA® BRAND Join Forces with United By Blue for Their Third Annual Beach Cleanup
Cocoa Beach, Florida (PRWEB) April 16, 2015 -- The Earth Day event is open to the public and will be held on Saturday, April 25th from 9:30 a.m.-12:00 p.m. at Constitution Bicentennial Park, 655 W Cocoa Beach Causeway, Cocoa Beach, FL. All volunteers will be provided with event t-shirts, breakfast, water, trash bags, gloves and sunscreen. ECO SWIM and their partners hope to beat their record of 218 pounds from last year's Cocoa Beach cleanup.
“The Cocoa Beach cleanup with ECO SWIM and United By Blue gives us the opportunity to care for the beaches and oceans we cherish. This annual tradition is an important part of our mission to be good corporate citizens,” said Sheila Arnold, president and CEO of Everything But Water.
According to the Natural Resources Defense Council, “Around 80 percent of marine litter originates on land, and most of that is plastic. Plastic that pollutes our oceans and waterways has severe impacts on our environment and our economy.” … “Plastic pollution affects every waterway, sea and ocean in the world.” (2015. http://www.nrdc.org)
