Coastal Cleanup

9 of 15

SHANA BRAFF/BAYPORT-BLUE POINT PATCH

Students at Blue Point (N.Y.) Elementary spent a day at the shore with their families, but they were too busy picking up trash to lie on the sand. The PTA-sponsored cleanup, which took place at a local beach, was tied to the International Coastal Cleanup initiative. The group picked up 170 pounds of trash, including 1,373 cigarette butts and 215 bottles and cans.
