Dockweiler Beach Clean Up

On October 12, 2014 our class participated in the Heal the Bay beach clean up at Dockweiler  Beach. The event was only two hours long. During those two hours my group collected three bags full of trash . In the group we picked up many cigarette buds, peaces of Styrofoam, empty chip bags, water bottles and pieces of clothing. It is really surprising how  so much trash can be left around the beach and nobody do anything about it. This event helped me realize that there are many careless people are out there that don't know or don't care about the trash they leave behind and the harm that it does to animals that live at the beach. The Heal the Bay was a great experience and it is something I would do again.
