Shoreline Cleanup - Sept. 25th
The UVic Scuba Club has teamed up with the Ocean Students Society this year for the annual shoreline beach clean up event. Every year ocean advocates come together to create awareness about debris left on our beaches and deposited in our oceans. This debris harms aquatic life, leaves un-natural chemicals in our waters, and adds to the great pacific garbage patch in the Pacific Ocean.
