BIO Club had our first Bear Bayou water chem testing earlier with Ms. Debra Veeder. It is always nice to know how the bayou's water quality is doing, especially for our turtles and fishes.

The results are in for the 2019 Mississippi Coastal Cleanup event! Thousands of volunteers came together for the Annual Mississippi Coastal Cleanup event on the morning of Saturday, Nov. 16, 2019, to rid our coastline, beaches and bayous of marine debris. Over 40 cleanup sites spanned the coastal counties – Jackson, Harrison and Hancock – covering 34.7 miles of the coastal region. Throughout the cleanup, volunteers filled 1,147 bags with trash resulting in 22,481 pounds of trash being removed – that’s 11 tons of trash! Additionally, the 1,566 volunteers helped collect data that will be used to categorize the major sources of marine debris entering the coastal environment. This figure shows the Top 10 trash items collected during the event. 😱
What are some ways we can prevent these single-use items from ending up in our environment? The start of a new year could be the start of new (sustainable) habits! 😍

See y'all in 2020 🥳🐠
Happy Holidays!
