| Makai Pier/Makapu`u Beach Clean-up - November 2007 |
| Makai Pier/Makapu`u Beach Clean-up & litter prevention campaign Sunday 4th November 2007 |
| This clean-up was a continuation of the cigarette butt litter prevention campaign from October 27th's "Make a Difference Day" clean-up at Makapu`u Beach. Volunteers picked up 413 cigarette butts compared with the prior week's clean-up of 3418 butts. Volunteers braved very windy conditions at Makai Pier to remove marine debris and beach goer trash from the coastline in order to protect marine birds and animals as well as make the area safer for beach goers. |
