Margaret T. Burroughs (31st Street) Beach, 3100 S. DuSable Lake Shore Drive
Join Alliance for the Great Lakes on the beach for an Adopt-a-Beach cleanup at Margaret T. Burroughs (31st Street) Beach! We will work together to remove litter from the shoreline and collect valuable data about what we are finding. These data help scientists study sources of pollution and help policy makers develop new programs and policies.
At the cleanup, Alliance for the Great Lakes staff will discuss the importance of the Great Lakes ecosystem, issues that impact this ecosystem such as plastic pollution, and how community science programs like Adopt-a-Beach play a role in addressing plastic pollution in the Great Lakes. All cleanup supplies will be provided by Alliance for the Great Lakes. Please wear close-toed shoes, dress to be in the elements for a couple of hours, and bring a personal water bottle. We hope to see you on the beach!
