Tsunami Debris Response and Coastal Marine Debris Cleanup Efforts
Tsunami Debris Response Efforts
Some tsunami debris items from the March 11 earthquake have already been discovered on the west coast of North America and may continue to arrive intermittingly over the next few years. Japan, the U.S. and Canada have been cooperating on the tsunami debris issue, a natural event, and Japanese Consulates General along the West Coast and in Hawaii have been sharing information with relevant U.S. and Canadian federal, state and provincial government agencies since last year. |
Coastal Cleanup Activities
Ongoing media attention on tsunami debris washed out by the Great East Japan Earthquake has helped to raise public awareness of the much larger and continuing issue of general marine drifting debris, which circulates oceans and washes up on shorelines around the world all the time. As a result, there has been renewed interest in coastal cleanup activities by volunteers and various organizations on the west coast of North America and in Hawaii.
On the west coast of North America, coastal volunteer activities have been conducted by various organizations. Those who are interested in helping to beautify California's coasts and waterways can click on the California Coastal Commission link below.
