In celebration of World Oceans Day (June 8), Niantic shared the results from the recent Pokémon GO Earth Day event that took place in April in partnership with Mission Blue and Playmob.

Last Friday Niantic reached out to members of the press and shared some numbers behind the Earth Day cleanups:

- Over 6.5 tons of garbage has been collected in aggregate
In the light of these results, John Hanke published a blog post on Niantic’s official blog, sharing the vision and passion behind these efforts.
