Litter-Picking Events Happening on Weekend of August 17:
PACK YOUR BAG DAY: AUGUST 17
Millions of animals are killed by plastic waste every year and 80% of marine litter comes from the land. One person alone cannot stop this, but if we all came together, we can.
On August 17, a group of people are coming together to fight waste and organize litter picking events globally. Picking up trash and potentially saving a sea turtle’s life only takes 2 minutes. Will you join us on August 17 in restoring our wildlife?

Litter picks are generally safe, but please be sure you take the proper precautions to ensure your litter picks are safe. Here is an example of a Health and Safety Risk Assessment to ensure your litter picks are safe.
