Plastics contribute around 85% to volumes of recorded beach litter – 61% of this is single-use plastic items!
Not only is plastic waste choking planet earth – polluting the air, water and soil which people and animals need to survive – but studies have shown that toxic elements from plastic can leech into our bodies.
Drinking tap water, especially if it’s purified, is usually much better for your health and the environment than bottled water.
According To The Beach Co-Op, “Human Life Is Significantly Dependent On The Health Of The Ocean."
OUR OCEANS:
- Generate 50% of the oxygen we need to breathe
- Supply 1/6th of the animal protein we need to eat
- Hold more than 90% of all water on earth
- Absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
- Play a significant role in mitigating climate change.
Yet the ocean is under constant threat due to our consumer patterns and current productions. 61% of recorded beach litter is single-use plastics!
What to Remember for the Beach Cleanup on 13 March 2021:
- Bring a refillable bottle, stay hydrated and top up on water throughout the cleanup. (We will be giving a few bottles away too!)
- Leave any single-use plastic at home!
- Wear a hat, sunblock and make sure you have something warm in case the weather changes.
