In observance of World Oceans Day on Sunday, June 8, 2014, the Guyana Shines: Keep Guyana Beautiful project undertook a cleanup of the beach area along the Georgetown Seawall. Representatives of the U.S. Embassy, the Youth Ambassadors Program, Youths for Guyana, the Mayor and City Council of Georgetown, and volunteer citizens joined forces to lend their voices through action towards maintaining and protecting the environment and the ocean from multiple threats.
