Every other month or so Deep Blue has done a Dive Against Debris to keep our waters clean.  We've participated in cleanups here in Long Beach and over at Avalon.  (You can check out your impact so far here.)   Well, every September is the Debris Month of Action and September 20th is Coastal Cleanup Day.  And since 2012 we've made Coastal Cleanup Day our big cleanup of the year.  This time it's going to be even bigger - with your help!

Deep Blue is partnering with Aquatic Capital of America and Roddenberry Adventures to take on a new location!  You can check out that location here.  In 2012, the Coastal California Commission reported that on Coastal Cleanup Day there were 58,158 volunteers who picked up 674,234 pounds of trash and 75,089 pounds of recyclable material - or 375 TONS total!  You can read more about last year's event here and see Deep Blue's photos here.  Now, do you think we can do better this year?

In order to reduce waste, we are asking that participants sign up online and fill out as many waivers as possible online.  Please click here to get involved!
