  • Enhance the general awareness of the plastic pollution by telling about the PLASIC CHANGE INITIATIVE go to: https://plasticchange.org/ and sign-up

    When in the nature I always bring a special bag for collecting plastic - The Danish organisation HAVMILJØVOGTER supplies bags in Denmark for free. For more info: http://en.havmiljøvogter.dk/

    Be aware of not throwing any plastic in the toilet - only your own waste and toiletpaper

  • I'm a teacher and live in a beautiful coastal area (Pembrokeshire Wales) but was shocked the other day to find that my students know nothing about what is in the sea around them. What I want to do is get as many pictures of the animals and wildlife in and around the sea, print them out and display them on the walls of my classroom. Hopefully this will spark their interest and they will want to find out more!

  • I have already switched to a selective waste collecting program, and now would like to reduce my water consumption as much as possible. Water is not a problem in Hungary, where I live, but we need to think globally and secure natural resources. This should be a priority.

  • I'm active member of a Kayak club at lake Esrom (second largest lake in DK), and during the summer season we arrange severel "garbage pick-up's" at the lake and the banks og the lake.

  • This summer, in which I will go diving in the Red Sea, I will do two things which I usually do: pick up any plastic I encounter while I dive (which unfortunately is a lot!) and keep my diving knife handy for any old forgotten fishermen traps on the ocean floor which I cut through to avoid any beautiful marine life get trapped!

  • As a family we do our very best to respect our beautiful planet, this includes having dramatically reduced our plastic usage and always recycling. The current focus on the impact plastic has on our wildlife needs to be increased and as I work in the Education System I am encouraging all the children to be aware their ability to help reduce,reuse and recycle :)

  • This month's National Geographic Magazine is devoted to Planet or Plastics. It's just amazing how much plastics trash is destroying our environment. I think this Months National Geographic Magazine is a must read for everyone.

  • I decided to check what the EU institutions are doing to protect the oceans from pollution.

    In January 2018 the European Commission has adopted the first-ever Europe-wide strategy on plastics which will protect the environment from plastic pollution whilst fostering growth and innovation. Every year, Europeans generate 25 million tonnes of plastic waste, but less than 30% is collected for recycling. Across the world, plastics make up 85% of beach litter. You can read about it here:

    ec.europa.eu/.../first-ever-europe-wide-strategy-plastics-2018-jan-16_en

    The European Environment Agency (EEA) has released new data about litter found on Europe’s beaches. Based on nearly 700,000 collected items, disposable plastics are the biggest contributor to marine litter, with cigarette butts and filters being the most commonly found individual items. The new data has been collected by volunteers using the EEA’s Marine LitterWatch mobile app.

  • I will Pick up trash at the beaches I visit , and share it in my Facebook page, to increase my friend awareness.

  • Every weekend I go Diving and pick up waste. And ofcourse I wil stimulated orhers by sharing and caring

  • I've started to separate pastic from my normal waste. As soon as i started there was more plasic waste than normal. In my city the plastic waste is recycled so it doesn't end up in the ocean or environment. Unbelievable how much plastic we use and don't recycle.

  • This saturday we will go to clean one beach in Denia(SPAIN) with our scuba club EL POLPETER. Every day we try explain the people the problem with the enviroment.

  • My daughter is 3 years old and we are visiting the beaches when the weather allows it. I'm teaching her to clean up after her self, especially public places like the beach, as we only have ourself to blame for the polution. She already shows alot of responsibility and I'm sure she'll grow up caring about the enviroment and the ocean, which she truly loves.

  • until June 17th,2018..... it's not until, it' forever!

    No plastic in the nature, pick it up, reuse and help create a better planet for the next generation. We do our best to preserve all of narures reserves

  • I will always bring a back for my own trash and for trash that I find when I go hiking in the nature :)
