No More Single Use Plastic
Milena’s project addressed the fact that Texas has more marine
debris along its coastline than any other state in the nation. While
Fort Worth is removed from the coastline, the amount of garbage left
in public parks has increased since the pandemic. She coordinated with
area leaders and organizations to provide regular clean-up days at
local parks. By doing so, less trash reaching the river basins,
ultimately impacting the Texas coast.
