The Strandliners team at work. Identifying and recording our environmental pollution is increasingly important.
We can lobby for change when we have the data. Everyone can take part.

Thinking about litter picking, have a look at this.

[Strandliners @StrandlinersCIC]

Do we only see what we physically purchase?

What about the pre & post consumer production & waste consequences?

The unseen life cycle of plastic

[Strandliners @StrandlinersCIC]

Vapus intoxicatus (habitat - all environments; distribution - widespread; subspecies - many colour and pattern variations; environmental impact - high). What other plastic species will we find during the @Plasticblitz?

Fantastic Blue Planet @Eastbourne Conference
Great #marineconservation discussion...
Some unanswered questions...
"How to increase take up of #recycling with future new materials, if only <50% now?"
"How to reduce exports of our #rubbish and deal with it ourselves?"

This Saturday! Exciting! #preventingplasticpollution #LoveOurRother #CleanerRiverCleanerSeas

[Strandliners @StrandlinersCIC]

The #LoveOurRother event is this Saturday 18th. We have many different environmental and community groups bringing their love to Rye Community Centre between 10am and 2pm

[Strandliners @StrandlinersCIC]

The sun shines, spring is around the corner, green shoots burst through to reach the sun. Or are they green shoots? Just 50+ discarded #dogpoobags merging with the #wondersofspring
These will not #biodegrade or #compost within weeks or months, but just become more #microplastics

[Strandliners @StrandlinersCIC]

What a lovely group of organisations coming to Rye - Sat 18th Feb @BDP_WCA @SussexUnderwater @RSPCAMallydamsWood @SE_Rivers_Trust @unaclimateocean @SussexWildlife @EnvAgency @Greener_Rother @SussexGreenways @StrandlinersCIC @GardenRye @mcsuk @SeaChampions @RotherDC @RotherVA

[Strandliners @StrandlinersCIC]

All rivers run to the sea, bringing inland pollution with them.
This free #PreventingPlasticPollution event joins the land to the sea for everyone
