International Coastal Cleanup: September 3rd week

In every year September 3rd week, International Beach Cleanup Day is held.

It has been implemented since 1985 by the “Marine Conservation Center” in San Francisco, USA.

Various kinds of garbage are scattered on the coasts of the world.

By collecting them, countermeasures can be devised.

Every year about 100 countries and regions participate in this.
