Information box from Ocean Conservancy: www.oceanconservancy.org
September 20 is the date for Ocean Conservancy's International Coastal Cleanup. The informational box above reveals the source of most of the ocean trash collected in 1 day in 2007. In addition, 237 animals were saved from entanglement in debris. While collecting the trash, the Ocean Conservancy also records all they find to provide a snapshot of marine pollution. Their Web site has a link for joining the clean-up September 20 as well as data and reports from 2007's clean-up.
