At our Watson Island site, sponsored by Coastal Waste & Recycling, the Miami Yacht Club and Jungle Island are partnering to host cleanup volunteers from both land and water to remove debris, conduct citizen science and raise awareness to help #SaveBiscayneBay. With a full lineup of additional offerings, including a volunteer lunch and live music, an impactful and enjoyable experience will be had by all.

On June 3rd, please join Blue Scholars and ARTSail for a special night of impact speakers and films at the W South Beach. Part of the World Ocean Weekend Celebration, the evening kicks off at 5:00PM with the Sheroes of the Ocean panel and reception. At 7:00PM, IOFF Director Ana Blanco will introduce the films that will take us around the world to witness the beauty and energy of the ocean, and connect us to its remarkable inhabitants and staunch advocates, all while inspiring us to act on their behalf. Check out the selection of films below to be screened in Miami Beach and be sure to reserve your tickets today!

W SOUTH BEACH

2201 COLLINS AVE, MIAMI BEACH

~ Purchase TICKETS ~

Blue Carbon

Paul Nicklen (USA) 3 min

Narrated by Cristina Mittemeier, co-founder of SeaLegacy, and the 2021 IOFF Ocean Champion, this film reminds us of the importance of our oceans in heeding the call of the UN Decade of the Ocean for Sustainable Development. This short film emphasizes that the relationship between our ocean, the air, and the land is critical for a successful blue economy and healthy ecosystems – but only if we act now.

HUFF

David Mangum (USA) 7 min

Discover the beauty and mysteries of the Florida Everglades through the eyes of Steve, a legendary tarpon guide and longtime resident of the area who discovered fishing at the age of 10. Over the years he has seen how the quiet landscape of wildlife and lush mangroves have changed. An intimate story of the connections we make with nature and how the bond holds over time.

And Yet, I Remain

Rick Wall (South Africa) 8 min

A South African body-surfer who loses his leg to a great white shark, later returns to the sea as a freediver to heal. Beneath the surface, he forms a deeper relationship with the sea and the species that took his limb. He discovers a sense of humility and connectedness he had not previously known, and learns that acceptance is not resignation.

Hypnotise

Ste Everington (Australia) 4 min

Hypnotize is a visual orchestra, a film to enjoy through the senses. A sunken ship, transformed by 17 years beneath the waves, has become part of the habitat of some 200 species of fish. Dive in and enjoy the beauty, rhythm, and visual feast of this short movie.

Back to the Sea

Jack Gordon (USA) 6 min

Unable to swim and afraid of the deep, Aunofo Havea Funaki began her seafaring life at age 25. Seventeen years later she became the first licensed female captain in Polynesia. As she reconciles and honors her father’s whaling heritage, she is transforming how younger generations in Tonga relate to the sea through ecotourism instead of slaughter. “The whales connect us to our history.”

Bottle Cap

Marie Hyon and Marco Spier (USA) 5 min

Fiddler crabs are distinctive for their two claws of unequal size. When Shelton, a fiddler crab, finds a plastic bottle cap he is elated that he has found the perfect prosthesis—or is it? The usefulness and bounty of plastic may not be what Shelton thinks.

Washed Ashore

Ley Heimgartner & Cameron Nielsen (USA) 16 min

Since 2019, 500 gray whales have washed ashore along their annual West Coast migration route, succumbing either to starvation, net entanglement or ship strike. Biologists from Canada, the US and Mexico are trying to learn why so many are being affected.

Seagrass for Sea Change

Whitney Beer-Kerr (Australia) 12 min

Posidonia seagrasses, which are an important habitat, an effective form of carbon capture, and a stabilizing factor for the shoreline, are diminishing worldwide. Boat moorings with dragging chains destroy seagrass meadows. This film documents a pilot program to restore the seagrasses in Botany Bay, Sydney, by replacing the moorings and enlisting the public to collect seagrass shoots for replanting.

Gender Outlaw, a bodysurfing story

Peter Williams & Tyler Wilde (USA) 16 min

Tyler Wilde is a bodysurfer and physical education teacher in Manhattan Beach, CA. When Tyler discovered the sport of bodysurfing and joined the “Gillis Beach Bodysurfing Association” he was faced with challenges of personal sex change and acceptance, both physical and emotional. Unexpectedly, Tyler’s classroom students and surfing friends provided Tyler with inspiration and support while he reconciled with his new identity.

The Ocean Solution

Darcy Hennessey Turenne (USA) 14 min

Farming under the sea? Meet Bren Smith, the ocean farming pioneer whose vertical kelp and shellfish farms are transforming the way food is produced. He discovered a new method of restorative ocean farming, producing large quantities of nutritious food while fighting the climate crisis, cleaning the ocean, creating aquatic habitat, and sustaining his organic sea-fairing way of life.

Give Miami Day is the second of our three annual giving days, with a combined fundraising goal of $25,000. Support on November 18th will provide free marine science education to South Florida youth.

Early giving begins on the 15th with up to $5,000 generously matched by Cole, Scott & Kissane, P.A. and The Brand Family.

Environmental and climate-focused organizations are the least funded of all issues, yet the most important for our well-being. Earth Gives, with its signature giving day on October 7, 2021 aims to change that by catalyzing investments in this specific nonprofit community.

This is the first of our three annual giving days that will help Blue Scholars rebound from the financial impacts incurred over the last 18 months. Early giving is underway so please donate to Blue Scholars, now through Oct. 7th. Your support is greatly appreciated.

Whoever said being an Ocean Steward isn't cool or fun hasn't been to a Blue Scholars coastal cleanup before. 

In honor of the Ocean Conservancy's 36th Annual International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) and World Water Monitoring Day on Saturday, September 18th, Blue Scholars Initiative invites you to join us for an engaging, educational and yes, FUN cleanup and celebration, sponsored by Coastal Waste & Recycling. The ICC is the world's largest, one-day volunteer effort for our oceans and waterways, providing an opportunity to help reduce marine debris in conjunction with millions of volunteers around the world! 

VolunteerCleanup.org organizes Miami-Dade County’s local participation in this global event with 45+ simultaneous shoreline cleanups all around the county, with each site being led by fantastic partner organizations in our network of cleanup hosts. The Miami-Dade ICC is a collaborative effort made possible by the generous support of our title sponsor Covanta, with additional support from Banesco USA, Blackstone Charitable Foundation, Miami-Dade County RER-DERM, Pubbelly Sushi, WPLG Local 10, and with special thanks to the Benjamin & Gloria Joannou, Jr. Family Conservation Fund.

In partnership with Miami Yacht Club, Jungle Island and the City of Miami, Blue Scholars will lead ~100 volunteers both from land and water (by paddle-craft) along the shores of Watson Island to remove debris, conduct citizen science and raise awareness to help #SaveBiscayneBay. With a full lineup of additional offerings, including a volunteer lunch and live music, you won't want to miss this cleanup experience. 

Kicking things off at 8am, Meredith Bass will lead interested volunteers in a waterfront yoga session to start the day with a stretch, deep inhale and opportunity to set your Ocean Hero intentions. At 9am, ALL registered volunteers will receive cleanup supplies (buckets/gloves), instructions and safety guidelines from the Blue Scholars team. The cleanup and sort will run from 9am-11am, while the data count, discussion, weigh-in and group photo will follow from 11am-12pm. In addition, partner organizations, JudyDayCo, Surfrider Miami and EarthEcho International, will conduct arts & crafts and water quality testing to further engage and educate participants of all ages from 11am-1pm.

At 12pm, the celebration begins! Miami Yacht Club, Rotary Club of Miami, Biscayne Bay Brewing, Publix and Hungry Harvest will come together to provide a waterfront lunch for participating volunteers, while Miami’s musical talents, DeBlois Milledge and Joe Contillo, fill the air with their Soul-Folk tunes. Cleanup volunteers will be invited to sit back, relax and lounge with us until 3pm when the sea breeze will fill our sails and whisk us away. 

Registration for this cleanup site is FULL but you can find another site HERE. If possible, please have guests in your party individually register so we can ensure they receive all of the information about the event and we can accurately plan for turnout. Separate registration for the yoga session is also required and can be completed through Eventbrite.

Volunteer details: 

• Free parking will be located in the neighboring Jungle Island parking garage. Signs will be posted to direct volunteers.

• Check-in will be located at the entrance to the Miami Yacht Club at 1001 MacArthur Causeway. All volunteers MUST check-in and sign a waiver.

• This event is suitable for ages 6+. Youth, ages 15 and under, MUST be accompanied by a parent/guardian. If you are 16-17 years old and coming without a parent or guardian, you must have a parent/guardian Print, Sign and Return the waiver in advance.

• Masked or Vaxed! Due to the rise in COVID cases, please wear a mask if you are not vaccinated. If you are experiencing, or have recently experienced, any related symptoms, please do not participate in this event.

• Dress for the weather and wear appropriate foot-wear. This particular shoreline is rocky with trees so you must wear closed-toe shoes like sneakers (no flip-flops or sandals).

• Reef-safe sunscreen, insect repellent and sun protection (sunglasses, hat and lightweight long-sleeve clothing) are recommended.

• If you have gloves, bring them. We will provide gloves but cannot guarantee they will be in your size. We suggest reusable work, garden or dish gloves.

• Bring water in a reusable container. Let’s reduce waste and refuse single-use disposable plastic water bottles. Refilling stations will be available.

• Community service hours are provided and a certificate will be emailed following the event. Please bring any forms that require our signature.

Paddle-craft volunteer details: 

• You must supply your own personal paddle-craft (SUP, kayak, canoe) and flotation device, and be skilled to operate forward motion, stopping, turning and balance.

• Wear appropriate clothing that can get wet, as well as provide sun protection. Some wading on unstable ground or in the water may be necessary to collect trash.

• Understand that this event is weather dependent. If conditions on the water are not suitable for paddling, volunteer participants will be advised to not enter the water and instead, remain on land to participate.

About International Coastal Cleanup:

Scientists estimate that more than 17 billion pounds of plastic enters our ocean every year threatening marine life from corals polyps to sharks, the health of people, and local economies. Over the past 36 years, Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup has brought together nearly 13 million people from over 150 countries to collect nearly 250 million pounds of trash along our coastlines and waterways. Every year during Ocean Conservancy’s International Coastal Cleanup, volunteers comb lakes, rivers and beaches around the world for trash picking up everything imaginable along the world’s shorelines: cigarette butts, food wrappers, abandoned fishing gear and even automobiles and kitchen appliances.

By volunteering at ICC, you will be actively participating in a global citizen science project, not only by removing marine debris, but by also cataloguing and tallying what you find using the Ocean Conservancy’s data collection cards or Clean Swell app. The resulting item-by-item, location-by-location Ocean Trash Index that Ocean Conservancy compiles each year provides the only global snapshot of the marine debris littering coasts and waterways around the world.

Blue Scholars is thrilled to participate in the #SaveBiscayneBay panel discussion on Wednesday, July 14th in the Miami Design District, and grateful to benefit from a portion of Quinaz Studio’s Bay Store proceeds.
