Recycled picnic containers and bottles will keep seas pristine

The beaches of the Treasure Coast are famously beautiful and residents have to do their part to keep them that way. My mom and I regularly walk the beach.

We're always on the lookout for pretty shells, but most of what we collect is litter.

It's more than unsightly or a nuisance. Trash in the water or washed up on beaches is harmful to wildlife. In addition, marine debris can wrap around boat propellers and clog intakes, causing engine damage.
