Members of the military community, children from local preschools and Okinawa residents gather for an Earth Day cleanup and tree planting April 21 at Nature Mirai Kan in Kin Town, Okinawa, Japan. Approximately 100 participants picked up trash along the Okukubi River and planted mangrove saplings next to the river bed. Small gaps in mangrove roots provide protection for small fish because bigger fish can’t fit in between them. ( Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Douglas D. Simons)
