| Join In! Marine Debris is a Problem We Can Fix! Trash doesn't fall from the sky, it falls from our hands. Since the beginning of human history, we have believed the ocean to be infinite, but it is not. We simply cannot continue to put our trash in the ocean. The evidence turns up every day in dead and injured marine life, littered beaches, and choked marine ecosystems. All of us, whether we are among the two-thirds of the world population inhabiting the coast, or those living hundreds of miles inland, are intimately connected to the ocean. Cleanup volunteers all over the world - dedicated, hard-working people committed to ocean and water conservation - already know this. You and your friends, neighbors, family, and colleagues can join in this remarkable experience of international camaraderie on behalf of the ocean environment. The Ocean Conservancy |
