As the Massachusetts cold makes its final stand and the birds begin their songs anew, take a moment to celebrate this season of rebirth.

At Seaside Sustainability, we fight to ensure that the sights and smells of Spring - the blooming of flowers, the rays of sunshine cascading from a clear blue sky, the splashes and laughter from loved ones as they enjoy our beautiful natural coastlines - are preserved for generations to come. We owe it to ourselves, our children, and our planet.

This month, Seaside Sustainability began the exciting process of editing and publishing Guest Blog submissions!

From the dangers of plastic pollution to the exciting new frontier of Blue Recycling, this month's authors touched on a wide variety of hot topics in environmental science.

Want in on the action?

The Clean Coast Coalition is an exciting partnership between Seaside Sustainability and Keep Massachusetts Beautiful. We have joined forces to address the marine debris problem along New England coastlines through action, innovation, and education.

The Clean Coast Coalition aims to improve water-based ecosystems through the use of “BlueTech” devices like the BeBot and Pixie Drone. These devices will not only reduce the amount of harmful debris present in local waters, but also help to educate the local community about the dangers of marine debris in their environment. Through the collection of water quality data, camera footage, and waste retrieved by the devices, we strive to raise awareness and inspire residents to prevent debris from entering waterways in the first place.

So, how do we combat plastic pollution, and what does a sustainable future actually entail? Is a completely plastic-free world possible?

The task of making schools more environmentally-friendly has never been more important, and our Sustainability Consulting Team is here to help!

We’ve worked with schools to:

• Establish on-campus environmental clubs

• Conduct student surveys and collect research

• Deploy water-saving & waste-recycling strategies

Our team supports K-12 schools and universities from the beginning project brainstorming phase all the way through seamless implementation.
