Clean Up The Lake dive teams finished their first ever circumnavigated clean up at Donner Lake in September 2020. Our dive teams cleaned all 8 miles, cleaning out 5,151.5 pounds of submerged litter from Donner Lake.
Between Donner Lake and Lake Tahoe, CUTL dive teams pulled out over 106 tires from Donner Lake and Lake Tahoe over the summer of 2020.
During one of our cleanups of Lake Tahoe our dive teams pulled out 990 aluminum cans in one day. We have identified hot spot areas where currents and winds may be contributing to the centralized accumulation of these items in Lake Tahoe and Donner Lake. As a result of our summer 2020 survey dives we removed over 3,167 cans from these two lakes.
Our mission is to fight back against plastic and all forms of pollution in our global environment, both on land and under the surface, starting with Lake Tahoe and the Cayes in Belize.
