Their beach clean up had 28 volunteers helping and they got a lot of trash!

Some unofficial stats for ICC 2015 Brunei: 

Muara Beach - 170 volunteers. 569kgs

Meragang Beach - 180 volunteers. 661.4kgs

Telisai-Danau Beach - 86 volunteers. 1001kgs

Lumut Beach - 143 volunteers. 614.5kgs

Jubilee Beach - 192 volunteers. 125kgs

Total coastline cleaned - 7.5kms

Total cleanup time - 4 hours

There were 76 volunteers, and they collected 542 pounds of trash total.

The majority of litter found on both beaches were bottle caps, plastic bottles, aluminum beer cans, and bits of glass. A few man made items like flip flops and clothes were found. Most trash on the beaches were simply things that can be recycled: glass, aluminum, and plastic.

All the volunteers who came to the cleanup were very happy to help and were a big support for their community!

Message from the volunteers: We cleaned most of the beaches (13,5km) around the Kiel fjord with 18 groups of altogether more than 500 volunteers. Most of these beaches are cleaned regularly during the bathing season, which means until the end of September. Therefore, our beaches are relatively clean.Since the Baltic Sea has hardly any tide and little surf, little waste is washed ashore. Most of the waste is left behind by the people on the beach. You wouldn't see the difference on first sight.

We collected 423kg of trash
Our top five are: 33.231 cigarette butts, 5.168 food wrappers, 4.220 glass shards (there's no category for shards on the form), 3.310 other plastic/foam packaging, 1.790 Bottle caps (metal)

School classes come here to learn about the habitat of the Baltic Sea and about the oceans. Plastic waste is always an issue. Therefore,many classes were involved in the cleanup. We raised some money so we could provide some equipment for the groups: lots of bukets, gloves, garbage bags, scales and sorting tarps. The sorting tarps are big tarps of 1,5 m x 6 m. On the tarps the main categories are glued asplaceholders. So you always know, where to put all the items. 
 

Cleanup Location: Island Langeoog, Germany
The team collected about 400kg mainly plastic ;-)

This site is an offshore island at the South of Singapore. It was formerly used as a military ammunition dumping ground until the 1980s. 

There is rich marine biodiversity there and marine life include corals, anemones and other marine invertebrates.

Message from Zwartkops Conservancy: On Sat 19th September - InternationalCoastal Cleanup day, the Zwartkops Conservancy assisted by our wonderful Sector Policing, the Life Savers & the metro cleaned up the Bluewater Bay beach, Port Elizabeth from Coega to Brighton Beach.  This photo shows some of those who helped & the Sector Policing vehicles & trailers with some of the rubbish we picked up.  This year we got more large sized items than before - so large they could not fit in bags!  There were about 80 people on the BWB beach who picked up approx 200 bags of rubbish and many more large items.  Our thanks to all who helped and special thanks to the Sector Policing because without them this could not have taken place.  We also thank PlasticSA for sponsoring our cold drinks, sweets, bags & some of the gloves.  It was good to be part of a world-wide event where people were cleaning the beach near them.

Cooks Road Stream cleanup was done on 9/28/14, and Pines Road Pond on 10/5/14.  The Girl Scouts Troop #70840, and Boy Scout Troop #180 cleaned up Pines Road Pond, and the Cub Scout Pack #180 clean up the Cooks Road Stream.

The cleanup effort took place on a recently designated Area of Rehabilitation, on municipal green acres property. This area is on the Toms River, and the property along the waterfront includes a beach and a forested area. Their Borough had about 50 volunteers including residents and a tremendous effort from Bloomfield College.  

The cleanup was at North Pulaski Park in the city of Passaic, Passaic County.  The main cause of the pollution was illegal dumping, people were throwing old mattresses and shopping carts back there.  The other large source was litter from people visiting the park.  It was amazing to see how much they pulled out of the riverbank, they filled about 4 DPW trucks.

The team cleaned about a square mile of Seven Presidents Beach in Long Branch.  Even though the beach is raked daily, they found plenty to pick up (160 pounds) mostly at the shore line and in the dunes areas.  They had 23 volunteers and were blessed with a beautiful day and a lot of support from NJ Clean Communities.  They supplied bags, gloves, and the most coveted "pointy sticks" to make picking up trash fun for their young volunteers.  It was also rewarding to know that everything they did made a difference in keeping our ocean water clean.  

The Cumberland County Improvement Authority hosted two clean ups.

Volunteers from the Vineland S.H.A.P.E Club had 15 students, 4 adult volunteers, the AmeriCorps watershed ambassador Lucas Carle and Gillian and Dominick Riviera. They kayaked and canoed the Maurice River picking up a total of 15 bags of trash, 11 bags of recycling, 2 plastic chairs, and part of a picnic table and 15 ft. of coated wire. Most of the “trash” they picked up on this river is either from people who canoe this stretch or from the beach area that people like to have parties at.

Pictures of their community clean-up. They had to reschedule to October 11, 2014, due to the weather, although it rained that day also. That did not stop their dedicated crew and Girl Scout Troop and their parents who found their volunteer group on our website. 

September 5th clean up of Pines Road and Pines Road Pond

Volunteers picked up pollution at Bull Shoals Lake - White River area in Arkansas. The White river is a gateway to the Mississippi and then on to the Gulf so our cleanup efforts do affect the Ocean.

Throughout September and October, nearly 500 volunteers collected over 10,000 pounds of marine debris from Puget Sound beaches, shorelines and waterways as part of the Ocean Conservancy's International Coastal Cleanup!

Puget Soundkeeper was able to support this project thanks to national support from the Waterkeeper Alliance SPLASH Series, presented by Toyota, and thanks to local support from Brown Bear Car Wash.

Recyclable material consisted of 278.62 pounds of glass, plastic, steel, and aluminum.
