SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) -- Earth Week in April is an annual movement that aims to protect the planet from things like pollution and deforestation. In San Diego County, Creek to Bay Cleanup is one of the largest single-day environmental action events and will take place on Saturday, April 26. I Love A Clean San Diego, founded in 2002, hosts the family-friendly event. "By 2050, there could be more plastic than fish by weight in the world’s oceans if we don’t defend our waterways from litter," the local environmental organization said on its website. "Because we LOVE where we live. Volunteering is a wonderful way to give back to your community while meeting like-minded people!" Locations of the cleanup sites and registration will be available on April 1. Participants can select a site through I Love Clean San Diego's community hub portal once the locations are posted. ...read more read less
