Description
GAEA Beaches Cleanup Join us for the GAEA Beaches Cleanup. We meet to pickup garbage off the Beaches at Hanna Park. The first year of life for baby Seagulls is the most volatile, because they are completely dependent upon their parents for food. Due to the pollution on the shores, the parents are unknowingly bringing pollution to their young as food. The parents are unaware that the food they are feeding their young is plastic that their digestive systems are unable to process. They have found lighters, plastic carriers from six-packs, baby pacifiers and other plastic items in their stomachs. The autopsies of the dead young reveals they died due to huge amounts of plastic in their stomachs. A direct correlation has been discovered between the decline of Seagulls and the increase of human pollution on our shores. This problem has not only been identified in Seagulls, but all wildlife that depends upon the shores for survival. Since we live in a beach town, GAEA would like to help with this problem by picking up garbage off Hanna Parks shores. Ever since the creation of our Grove, GAEA has always celebrated Earth Day in honor of the Goddess. We believe the Earth is the body of the Goddess, therefore sacred to us. As such, we want to do our part as an example for others to emulate by demonstrating our love for Mother Earth. If you are a Green Pagan, then please join us as we demonstrate our love, honor and respect for Mother Earth and her Creations. We will meet inside Hanna Park's Office located at the main entrance gate. This means waiting inside the office not in the parking lot. Let the Hanna Park Office Personnel know you are there for the GAEA Beaches Clean Up Day. They will be expecting you! RSVP Instructions: The RSVP module for this event has been deactivated.
