Annual Beach Clean-Ups
From time to time, SWMCOL partners with both public and private sector organizations to address beach and river clean-ups. However, the main clean-up event on SWMCOL’s calendar is the annual International Coastal Clean-up (ICC), an initiative started in 1986 by the US-based non-profit environmental advocacy group, Ocean Conservancy.
