Mother Earth gives us life. Let’s protect it. The goal is to teach residents, and educate the youth of today, how everyone can reuse, re-purpose, and reduce the consumption of plastic. By growing the local volunteer community, Clean Miami Beach supports a clean place for residents, visitors, and a safe environment where our beautiful wildlife can thrive.
