Fabulous volunteers with a passion to protect and educate far and wide about the great outdoors from our beaches to woodlands.

#plasticpollution in our #water from cleaning the clothes we wear.

[Marine Conservation Society @mcsuk]

Did you know many of our clothes are made of plastic? For every load of laundry washed, as many as 700,000 plastic #microfibres can flow into our water systems - that’s 9.4 trillion plastic fibres from washes every week in the UK! 🧶😨 #StopOceanThreads

I'm up to 44 of these bodyboard packaging, #discsofdoom, just off my beach in the last couple of weeks and have seen them wash up in Devon + California. Got myself a lovely Gloria Estefan "Go away" earworm to go with picking them up! 🔁 #2minutebeachclean @2minbeachclean

@bn1magazine Definitely. Less pollution is a wonderful thing.

Water firms discharged raw sewage into England's rivers 200,000 times in 2019.🤢

Our rivers need better protection, not watered down regulations.😡

[Surfers Against Sewage @sascampaigns]

⚠️ Sewage Alert⚠️
Heavy rainfall means CSOs are spewing sewage into UK rivers and bathing waters as we speak, and Government and Water Companies are doing very little to keep you safe. Donate to our Urgent Appeal to help #EndSewagePollution https://t.co/l03JpNOeLm

Amazing #barreljellyfish thanks to @SussexWildlife for the share. There are lots of #jellyfish in our waters right now - take a look 👀 don’t touch 👍

[Marine Conservation Society @mcsuk]

Wow, it seems the soaring temperatures have brought lots of #marinewildlife to our coast 🙌

Sunfish, jellyfish, swordfish, dolphins and now a Leatherback #turtle spotted off the #Welsh coast. A very exciting thing to see 🐢🐢🐢

#WorldNatureConservationDay today 🌳
Many of the crises the world is facing today are because of the lack of conservation or the wasteful use of natural resources. World Nature Conservation Day (28 July) aims to promote conservation, raise awareness, and encourage sustainability.

@SussexWildlife We did some recent work with @BBCBreakfast and their #litterbritain initiative and how we too have seen an increase on PPE becoming a #litterproblem
