Emma's Project Earth hits the beach!   Give thanks to your Mother (Earth) while on the beach... Summer 2017 Sometimes inspiration comes to you at the right time at the right place. Emma's Project Earth is a growing effort to take small steps to give Mother Earth a break. Easy things that while small can add up when you multiply their impact. The results can be astounding; ignoring them can have that same effect - in the wrong direction. We support 4Ocean and their passion to clean up the world's Oceans. Really, who wouldn't? When you check out their history (they just started in 2017) you can see that they are growing at a quick pace, most likely because it's the right thing to do. But, it's a shame that they have so much work in front of them. When you enjoy the beauty of the beach you are truly blessed. When you leave the beach all you should leave behind are footprints in the sand, not a trace that you were there. Anyone that loves the beach knows this, but if you look it's easy to see that not everyone lives that belief. Maybe they don't realize - or maybe they don't care. We care.
	A grass roots clean-up program, #EMFBeachCleanup is one of our summer projects that challenges you take an hour out of your beach vacation to look down at the sand and find and bag the trash you see. Take it with you and dispose of it properly. Anyone that has witnessed a bad coastal storm knows that the trash doesn't stand a chance if it's left on the beach, some of it will end up in the ocean.
	Now we could show you photos of garbage patches in the ocean or tell you how plastics threaten marine life, we know that we don't have to. Litter on the beach will end up in the ocean and it will pollute a beautiful resource - making the beach a less enjoyable destination. Now who wants that?
	Since summer began our followers have organized a dozen beach clean-ups - all informal - all while enjoying the beauty of the beach. If you are lucky enough to spend time at the seaside consider taking an hour to give a little love to Mother Earth - check out our Open Letter or click on the suns below to browse pics from the Facebook posts of the clean-ups.
