Have you heard of the International Coastal Cleanup? It happens every year in September and is the largest global volunteer day in service to our lakes, oceans, and rivers. Each year, approximately 600,000 people worldwide dedicate time to cleaning up their local waterways. The catch is that they record every single piece of trash collected! The results are then sent to the Ocean Conservancy and published into an annual report to give us an idea of exactly what is floating around in our oceans (hint: the most prevalent item is small, plastic, and brown and white in color).

TAKE THE PLUNGE: How to Become a Social Intrapreneur
Do you find yourself sitting in meetings daydreaming of:
- More eco-friendly ways to do things at your workplace?
- How to engage your colleagues in a community outreach project?
- Where to get the support and resources you need to launch a waste reduction program at your organization?
What is at the core of your personal engagement with, and passion for, sustainability in your life and business practices? Though it may be hard to name or identify your inspiration, it often comes from universally held human values we don’t commonly explore. This luncheon gathers a broad range of expert perspectives from diverse faith backgrounds to discuss this powerful intersection of sustainability and spirituality.
Our panel will touch on sustainability-forwarding steps such as:
