Advocating for Conservation This program encourages local businesses to keep plastic bags, straws and other common litter items out of our waters. Dedicated to teaching citizens how to take action on issues, related to climate change. A one-day event at the Zoo educates visitors on environmentally friendly practices. This public outreach program focuses on the changes we can make in our day-to-day lives to improve the overall health of the Indian River Lagoon. The Zoo hosted these striking large-scale sea life sculptures made from marine debris to raise awareness of its threats to the environment.
