🌊 2,633 lbs of waste removed from the ocean today! 🌍 Among the trash, we collected an astonishing 1,355 cigarette butts. These small but harmful remnants disrupt the beauty of our beaches and threaten marine life with toxic chemicals and microplastics. Cigarette butts may seem tiny, but each one leaches heavy metals and up to 7,000 chemicals into our oceans. To highlight the impact of cigarette waste on marine animals, our team created a mural of a whale and a turtle using these collected butts. 🐋🐢 This artwork stands as a reminder of the importance of protecting our oceans and the creatures who call them home. Together, we can make a difference! 💙 #BeachCleanup #SaveOurSeas #ProtectMarineLife #StopOceanPollution
