When you’ve been cleaning up the river bank then a whole heap of micro and macro plastic pollution floats by at high-tide #CleanerRivers #CleanerSeas #Microplastics #Microfibres #PlasticPollution #TheThames #Putney #London #PutneyBridge @CleanerSeasGp

Growing pressure to clean up Britain’s rivers to meet bathing water quality is a “game changer” that will require more government funding as the public embrace the outdoors, the head of the @EnvAgency has said. #CleanerRivers #CleanerSeas

We’re continuing our work with @BudeSchool in 2020 & we’re re-sharing this piece of art we challenged them to create. Made from microplastics found on Cornish beaches, with Sir David’s portrait entirely made from nurdles and biobeads. Please share we’d love Sir David to see it

Marine plastic pollution hides a neurological toxin in our food

Methylmercury makes its journey to our dinner plate up the food chain from the marine ecosystem's smallest organisms phytoplankton and zooplankton to fish & humans

A positive step in the right direction @Marriott

Marriott says the average hotel used more than 23,000 small bottles a year, but the ban has cut out the use of 10.4m plastic bottles, equivalent to more than 51,000kg of plastic annually.

The UK government has aimed for 75% of rivers to be in good health "as soon as is practicable", according to its 25-year environment plan.

Plastic in the water we drink, the air we breathe and in the food we eat. Scientists are finding tiny particles of plastic everywhere.

Look at the grain of salt in this picture.

Now imagine the pieces of plastic are white.

Beach clean and talks with Marhamchurch school today 💫 learning about the macro, micro, picking it up and learning about how to stop it at source

Ask yourself:

Manufacturers - Did we think about end of life at beginning of life?

Visitors - Did we #Reuse #reduce #refill #recycle (how much packaging in this bin could be avoided?

Hospitality - Did we TAKE RESPONSIBILITY? - we rely on beautiful beaches

I’m very disappointed to see that @smartwater are still sponsors of @theboatraces

Reuseable bottles & ReFILL are all that’s needed.

Rowers have a responsibility to take care of our rivers & oceans. Please find alternative sponsors for 2020 🌍💙 #CleanerRivers #CleanerSeas

Plastic bottles, the detritus of our throwaway water and soft drinks habits, are the most prevalent form of plastic pollution in European waterways, according to a new report.

“Marine plastic pollution costs the world up to $2.5bn a year”

The estimates do not take into account the direct and indirect impacts on the tourism, transport and fisheries industries, or on human health, the authors warned

This image is made with microplastic found on Cornwall’s beaches

@CocaCola produces 3m tonnes of plastic a year. That’s 200,000 bottles a minute

Only 9% of the World’s plastic is recycled

Have a think about that🤔 #CleanerSeas #GlobalRecyclingDay #BeTheSolution 🌍💙
