Help Raise Awareness about Marine Debris Prevention for Global Youth Service Day!

Around the world, marine debris poses a serious threat to our planet’s ocean environments. On April 11-13 in honor of Global Youth Service Day, the Stow It-Don’t Throw It Project is recruiting youth and adults, around the world, to raise awareness about this pressing issue by sharing our educational outreach presentation. This presentation, and accompanying activity book, is designed for both youth and adults to use to teach community members about marine debris, its impacts, and the importance of preventing it. 

As part of this campaign, we need YOUR help to share this presentation at your schools, libraries, club meetings and/or community events during Global Youth Service Day April 11-13, 2014, and throughout the year! In addition to sharing this presentation in your community, consider working to take action against by holding a cleanup, carrying out a recycling campaign, or finding creative ways to use discarded items!
