The Cleanup Network

Our participant network includes marinas, local partners, and academic institutions throughout the binational Great Lakes region, as well as sites that are part of affiliated initiatives across Canada and the United States.

Starting in 2022, the Great Lakes Plastic Cleanup expanded to the United States and is working with local partners and academic institutions to deploy litter capture technologies along and near the shores of Lake Ontario, Erie, and Michigan.
