🌊 Coastal Cleanup Day is tomorrow! 🌊 📅 Save the Date: September 21, 2024 📍 Location: Beaches, rivers, and oceans worldwide Coastal Cleanup Day is a global movement where communities unite to clean up our beaches, rivers, and oceans. As highlighted in our blog post (https://hubs.li/Q02QbXsr0), tackling litter and illegal dumping is crucial for preserving the beauty of our natural environments and enhancing community health, environmental sustainability, and economic stability. The challenges we face with waste management are vast but not insurmountable. In 2016, Borrell and fellow researchers estimated that 23 million metric tons of plastic waste entered aquatic ecosystems from land around the world. These figures can feel overwhelming, especially if your municipality is counting on human efforts alone to identify, track, and prevent litter and debris from entering waterways. There are many opportunities to help keep waterways clean and we can follow the wonderful example set by Keep the Midlands Beautiful. Executive Director Traude Sander assembled a troop of over 200 volunteers across 30 organizations to come together and cleanup Lake Murray, SC. These local leaders cleaned up several thousand pounds of litter and debris from the shoreline! It takes a village, and City Detect is here to help. With our AI powered litter and debris detection, we can supercharge your efforts to reduce solid waste from entering waterways and the ocean. Check out what we were able to detect in Atlanta so far: - 886, 141 pieces of litter - 12,410 pieces of debris - 2,353 debris piles - 938 tires Contact us today to get started: https://hubs.li/Q02QbVvW0 #CoastalCleanupDay2024 #UrbanBlight #AIforGood #CoastalCities #IllegalDumping #Litter #Cleanup #GrassRootsMovement #CityDetect #SolidWaste #Sustainability
