More About Spring Beach Cleanup Along With Live Like Luke

GREENWICH GREEN & CLEAN
SPRING BEACH CLEANUP along with LIVE LIKE LUKE
SATURDAY, APRIL 27, from 9 am to 1 pm
Join us at Greenwich Point to celebrate Earth Day by cleaning up the winter’s trash. This event honors Luke Meyers, GHS environmental activist who lost his battle with cancer in 2019. His mother, Kerry Meyers, noted that Luke was an inspiration to all who knew him. He will be remembered for his remarkable creativity, his passion for learning and his determination to make positive changes in the world.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation has honored Luke by installing a climate change education exhibit at the Bruce Museum Seaside Center. He wanted the exhibit to focus on sea-level rise and its impact on Long Island Sound marine life and to increase awareness of what actions can be taken to slow down global warming.
All non-biodegradable debris will be tallied and reported to Save the Sound for submission to the Ocean Conservancy which coordinates results from organizations throughout the world to analyze the pollution in the earth’s waters.
