Episode 57: From Kayak to Movement: One Marine Debris Cleanup at a Time
Update: 2025-04-17
Description
On a quiet Sunday morning in Biscayne Bay, Dave Doebler set out alone in his kayak, as he often did. But this time, his mission wasn’t just to paddle. He had started to notice something that didn’t belong—trash. And not just a few bottles or bags.
What began as a personal ritual evolved into something much larger: a grassroots movement built around action, awareness, and community.
Doebler co-founded VolunteerCleanup.org to connect people to local cleanups and inspire them to protect their backyards.
“We are building a grassroots movement around people coming out and leading and joining cleanups,” he explains.
