The Great Canadian Shoreline Cleanup is a national conservation program that provides Canadians the opportunity to take action in their communities wherever water meets land, one bit of trash at a time.
The Great Canadian Shoreline Clean-up (GCSC) is the country’s largest on-going litter clean-up initiative. Niagara College is involved with the GCSC through hosting annual clean-up campaigns and events in the fall and spring to encourage students to get involved with water quality and conservation issues in their communities. Whether cleaning up in a group on campus or hosting a remote clean-up in your own neighbourhood, we encourage the NC community to take action for the environment and help to keep litter out of our waterways.
Virtual Clean-Up Toolkit
In light of the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for virtual event opportunities arose, so in the spring of 2021 we developed a toolkit for students to use to lead their very own clean-up in partnership with Brock University’s Environmental Sustainability Research Centre!
