Join Keep Tahoe Blue and Eco-Clean Solutions in helping reduce litter along Lake Tahoe's shoreline. Volunteers will assist in sorting and categorizing debris collected by the BEBOT, a beach-cleaning robot designed to remove litter from the sand while protecting the natural beach environment.
By sorting and documenting the collected material, you'll help us better understand the types of litter impacting Tahoe's beaches and contribute valuable data that supports future litter prevention efforts.
