World Oceans Day Education
Army Corp of Engineers
Each country on this planet has an Army Corp of Engineers protecting the shoreline to the high water point, then the municipality takes over. We work well with them at At Adopt A Shoreline AND World Oceans Day Education; we all have the same mission which is to protect the environment and promote sustainability for future generations. We all work towards reducing carbon emissions, conserving natural resources, eco systems, watersheds and promoting eco-friendly practices.
