At the Sea Life Park, volunteers and community members teamed up with 808 Cleanups to help clean up Baby Makapuu Beach.<\/p>\n

The park also welcomed families for their Keiki Sunday World Oceans Day event. <\/p>\n

Admission was free for keiki, and families were able to meet and learn about how to protect endangered marine life.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\u201cWe want to continue to really emphasize education and let people know that conservation is important,\u201d said Erica Neves, director of sales and marketing for Sea Life Park.<\/p>\n

Park trainer Alejandra Carolina Martinez emphasized that it\u2019s up to the current generation to teach the next.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s our job to kind of teach the next generation, that\u2019s the whole goal, right? So if we stop doing that, then what\u2019s going to happen with the future generations?\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Martinez said that World Ocean Day great reminder for everyone to do their part.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think that Ocean Day is a good way to remind people that this is something that we should be thinking about all the time, and it\u2019s a nice little nudge, or reminder, that there are things we can be doing to help,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
