Be Turtley Cool - Take Action this Earth Day!

Saturday, April 21, 2012

11:30am - 3:30pm - Celebration

9:00am - 11:30am - Action

Lend a hand throughout Pacifica and beyond. Cleanup and restoration activities will be happening throughout the Bay Area. Together we can keep our parks, neighborhoods, and shorelines clean, safe, and beautiful for everyone!

This year we dedicate our Earth Day efforts to the magnificent sea turtle. These ancient sea dwellers have been around since before dinosaurs! But sadly, all seven species of sea turtle are now either critically endangered or threatened. Pollution and plastic debris in the ocean are among the top threats to sea turtles. Help us keep the ocean free of plastic debris this Earth Day. Be turtley cool - take action!

Who can participate?

Adults, kids, families, seniors, students, groups, businesses, volunteers, anyone!
