Good Harbor Beach-2 PM
CACC Interfaith Earth Day Gathering
Saturday, April 20th at Good Harbor Beach
2:00 p.m. Beach Clean-Up
3:00 p.m. Interfaith Ritual
Creation Justice Ministries, a national organization, calls our attention to the issue of plastics this Earth Day. The manufacturing process is a major source of climate-warming greenhouse gas emissions. Our waterways bear the brunt of this pollution, which interferes with navigation and disrupts commercial and recreational fishing. Ocean wildlife, including birds, whales, fish and turtles, can easily mistake plastic waste for prey, resulting in consumption of plastic that can’t be digested, which leads to starvation and eventually death. Infections, reduced ability to swim and internal injuries are also the result of this consumption of plastic.
Please bring gloves for the clean-up.
We will meet on the beach near the footbridge.
