Earth Month Challenge 2020 Results

Thank you all so very very much for participating by taking the pledge and doing your Green Acts. We had well over 110 responses! A lot of you pledged to “Use less single use plastic” and we are so happy to see that it is as important to you as it is to us.

In addition, a total of 250 volunteers participated in individual cleanups, removing 770 pounds of trash and 14,370 cigarette butts from the beaches and streets.

Some of you also came up with some new Green Acts that we wanted to share with the rest of you.
