Up2U Litter Prevention Campaign

09/20/2026

Awesome work Matagorda County! Up2U Litter Prevention Campaign partnered with Texas General Land Office Adopt-A-Beach Program last year to bring Up2U litter bags to Adopt A Beach cleanups and we are excited to see these bags in action! Adopt A Beach Up2U bags have the QR code for the Clean Swell app on them so you can easily report trash collected using these bags!

Great collaboration between Over the Bridge Future Fishers and Sea Pines Beach Cleanup Crew to clean up the gateway to Padre! That was a big job and it looks great!

Up2U Litterbags can now be provided along the entire Texas coast thanks to funding from the Texas General Land Office (GLO) under the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 made available to the State of Texas through the Texas Coastal Management Program.

Great work! This is incredible!

Nearly 50 volunteers spent part of their Saturday cleaning up the Arroyo Colorado. In just three hours, they removed more than 3,600 pounds of debris. Read what volunteers had to say about the cleanup and where all that trash really came from.

🎉 Welcome to the Team, Annie! 🌊

We're excited to introduce Annie Zeiler, Coastal Bend Bays & Estuaries Program's new Up2U Coastal Program Coordinator!

Annie grew up in Wisconsin before making her way to Texas, where she has continued to pursue her passion for environmental conservation. She earned her B.S. in Environmental Sciences from the University of Minnesota and recently completed her master's degree in Ocean, Coastal, and Earth Sciences at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.

During graduate school, Annie founded a Surfrider Foundation student club, where she discovered her passion for organizing beach and waterway cleanups along the South Texas coast. Now she's bringing that passion to CBBEP as she leads the expansion of the Up2U Litter Prevention Program across the entire Texas coast from South Padre Island to Galveston!

If you're already an Up2U partner and need more litter bags, or if your organization is interested in becoming a new Up2U partner anywhere along the Texas coast, send us a message and we'll connect you with Annie.

Please join us in giving Annie a warm welcome to the CBBEP team! 💙🌎♻️
