Earlier this month, our Environmental Solutions Gulf team took to the beaches in Galveston and Corpus Christi to take part in the Texas Adopt-A-Beach program. This is a volunteer effort to keep Texas beaches clean and pristine. A big shout out to Alyson T. of US Ecology for organizing the day across multiple locations!
Thank you to all of our employees and family members for joining this event and helping remove over 500 pounds of waste from the environment and keeping plastic waste and other litter out of the ocean.
“I love the beach and am an avid fisherman, I see the massive amount of trash that washes up on our shores every day. Taking part in cleanup efforts like this is a great way to make a small difference in the world. These initiatives reinforce a number of our company values demonstrating that we are Driven, Environmentally Responsible and Human-Centered. Our employees were excited to actively participate in a fun and personally rewarding event alongside their children as they taught them the importance of environmental stewardship. We must all do our part to help protect the planet,” said Vince S., ES Gulf Area President.
We can all play a part in putting our value of Environmentally Responsible into action! Next time you’re headed out to the beach or a nearby park, take along a trash bag to collect debris you find. |
