More than 700 cleanups in nearly every county of the state are planned – the day is touted as the state’s largest annual volunteer event.
“For generations, Californians have demonstrated their love and dedication to our coast during Coastal Cleanup Day,” California Coastal Commission Executive Director Kate Huckelbridge said in a statement. “The Coastal Commission is incredibly proud to provide an outlet for all Californians to express that dedication each year. We see how devoting only a few hours on a Saturday in September translates into a year-round commitment to the protection and preservation of our coast.
While most groups and larger gatherings have resumed for the single-day event, volunteers are still encouraged to help out throughout the entire month. It’s estimated that 50,000 volunteers help pick up trash during all of September. This year’s theme, “You’re Bigger Than You Think,” speaks to the enormous effect that volunteers can have when they come together to accomplish a common goal, according to organizers with the Coastal Commission.
