Canal Clean Sweep turns 20 years old this year. That means for 20 years Parks & Trails New York and the New York State Canal Corporation have been organizing the largest three-day Earth Day event in New York State.
For twenty years you and others from across New York State have been helping us remove litter and debris from our waterways and other green spaces. Every year we fill thousands of bags with garbage and set aside tires, strollers, and vacuums for disposal. Since plastic never biodegrades, and instead breaks down into smaller and smaller pieces that are then integrated into ecosystems, you’re helping keep our waterways healthy, and preventing plastic from ending up in our food chain.
Help us uphold this two-decade tradition of taking care of the trails and waterways in New York State by participating in an Earth Day clean up.
