This initiative started in 2009 to engage communities in protecting the local coast. It organizes biannual cleanups in Spring and Fall, collecting marine debris data and involving volunteers in citizen science. The project includes public education through webinars, art exhibitions, and the Clean S.E.A. sailing experience to reconnect participants with the marine environment. It also aims to increase youth engagement with beach cleanups and ocean science education programs.
