Spent the day paddling down the Don River and cleaning up with the UofT Trash Team for their second annual Clean Up the Don event! The Don River Watershed is the most urbanized watershed in Canada. A previous study conducted by the Trash Team showed the Don River is a source of approximately 650 kg of plastic to Lake Ontario each year and cleanups like this are important for stopping plastics from entering the lake. Stay tuned for blog posts and more from the event!
