river cleanups
Stream pollution removal
River cleanups are organized efforts to remove trash, debris, and pollutants from rivers and their banks.
Typically volunteer-driven and community-based, they target litter like plastic bottles, tires, and shopping carts that accumulate in waterways: The local conservation group hosts annual river cleanups each spring.
Beyond immediate waste removal, these events often aim to raise environmental awareness and foster stewardship of local ecosystems.
