I want to thank everyone who came out & esp. our Punaweb-ers Wes & Judy!
Not all tallied yet, but we did remove around one ton of garbage from the island, and the channel around the island. Our Kayakers (inc. Judy) did a fabulous job of tracking the divers (including Wes) & picking up a wide range of debris items that the divers brought up from the murky channel. And a Hawaiian studies class from HCC was instrumental in recording all of the debris found.
This was definitely the most diverse range of debris (with a whole lot of recreational beach debris, golf balls, tires & cages)
Hope to see you guys out next April for Earth Day!
