Today’s Catch: Trash Trap Dive
July 5, 2025 @ 9:45 am – 1:00 pm
On Saturday July 5, join our Trash Trap Dive for a one-of-a-kind opportunity to take a peek behind the scenes and learn how to characterize litter diverted by trash traps on the Toronto Waterfront.
You’ll have the unique opportunity to:
- Learn about floatable litter and the types of plastic pollution we find in Lake Ontario.
- Get hands-on experience with our team of Fighting Floatables researchers and learn how we characterize all sizes of plastic pollution collected by trash traps.
- Learn how trash trap data informs upstream solutions to prevent plastic pollution we find downstream.
- Meet organizations of the Toronto Inner Harbour Floatables Strategy and learn more about our collective work at info tables throughout the event.
