The Force was strong for @davidccummings and family. This week we celebrated 40 years of friendship with a #springbreak mangrove sweep. Easy travels, soon come back!

Every weekend is #springbreak for #locals at the #Miami #MarineStadium basin. Just ask the kids from MAST Academy, it’s in their backyard (where they recently activated a second FillABag Station).
*
By simply placing a single garbage can on the shoreline, we are encouraging boaters to swim their empties to the beach, and add to the pile. We witnessed that on Friday. Then what happens @cityofmiami? Shall we wait for the tide to collect it and wash it out to #biscaynebay? I’m pretty sure that this alarm has been sounded many times regarding this hot spot.

Who’s accountable here?

No matter how resilient they may be, mangroves need a little TLC.

“It’s pretty clean today,” @khalil_khouri co

“It’s pretty clean today,” @khalil_khouri commented as we approached the mangroves. Then he spotted something below the surface.
*
Reaching down with his paddle, he discovered a massive cast net. It was camouflaged, lurking untethered over a bed of sea grass in about 5’ of water.
*
This beloved stretch of mangroves in #keybiscayne is home to a wide array of wildlife, including resident #manatees who graze along the living shoreline. Luckily the birds, fish and mammals who call this home had avoided the #ghostgear we found today.
*
Did you ever wonder how much more is down there? According to a #unitednations report, over 640,000 TONS of fishing gear is left behind in the ocean every year.
*
Thank you @_jrose, @alivilla, @elyonnix, 12 year old Juan Pan and Sequoia for joining up. During a beautiful and spontaneous Sunday morning paddle, together we removed 118 lbs. of debris; mostly trap rope, nets, cans, plastic, and a full jug of motor oil.
*
Local #legend @vsendit, a foul mouthed trash picking savant, showed us how it’s done with the #polespear, too. @pelagicgear you should sponsor this guy.
