Community Outreach, Education, Marine Research, And Cleanup Come Together In The Vermont-Based Rozalia Project For A Clean Ocean, Which Enlists Students And Other Volunteers To Learn About And Remove Junk From The Nation's Waterways. After Hurricane Irene, The Organization Teamed Up With The State's Department Of Labor To Enlist Vermonters Who'd Lost Their Homes Or Jobs Because Of The Flooding. The Group (Which Was Paid Through Disaster Relief Funding) Spent A Fair Chunk Of 2012 Picking Up A Half-Million Pieces Of Detritus Left On The Bottom Of Lake Champlain And Local Rivers By The Hurricane. In October They Worked With Chicago Schools And Several Windy City Organizations To Tidy Up Lake Michigan.
