Fora Plàstics

Thankfully, the sight of litter-pickers on beaches is no longer rare. It is practiced by independent volunteers and environmental associations. But, what would happen if, when at the beach, we all started to collect rubbish as well as shells and stones?

This project will help monitor the status of our beaches and contribute to strengthening public knowledge around marine litter through simple actions, events and even whilst enjoying water sports such as surfing, sailing or kayaking.

We believe there is a clear need to engage more in raising awareness around marine litter. We live our lives surrounded by plastic and seeing so much of it wash up on our beaches is a stark reminder to confront our consumption and reliance on recycling. Clearing our beaches helps raise consciousness of our use of plastics in every-day life.
