Throughout the State of California, 66,535 volunteers removed 839,629 pounds of debris, on this day of action. And worldwide, 789,138 volunteers removed over 20 million pounds of trash and debris.

Removing pollution from the natural environment helps protect biodiversity. This year’s Coastal Cleanup Day poster, created by Aaron Gonzalez, celebrates local wildlife species found right here in L.A. County and highlights how our winding waterways connect many unique habitats from summit to sea.
