The Surfrider foundation has already had 319 volunteers help clean up oceans and beaches across the United States. There has been a combined total of 1,629 pounds of trash cleaned and removed by this foundation. They are finding mostly cigarette butts and several different types of plastics like water bottles and bags to clean.

I think that this foundation is great and what they have already been able to do this year is amazing. They are moving so quickly with cleaning the ocean which is great to see because we can know that the ocean is always being cleaned if this many people have already started going this year. In the year 2023, they were also able to clean 239,000 pounds of trash which shows the future that is ahead for the rest of this year.
