Get ready to make a splash for the planet—Clean Coasts Big Beach Clean is back, September 18-20, with over 100 Waterford volunteers already signed up and a nationwide push for 5,000+ participants. Last year’s haul? 3.4 tonnes of trash, including fishing gear, microplastics, and cigarette butts—with some corporate teams finding 800 butts in just 15 minutes. Your cleanup efforts don’t just beautify shores—they fuel real science and policy change. Log what you find via app or data cards to help fight ocean pollution. Kia Ireland’s handing out free clean-up kits before supplies run out—register by Sept 7. Every volunteer matters. Every beach counts.
