NGO Clears 500Kg Of Debris From Maltese Seas

A successful summer cleanup initiative was completed thanks to the environmental group ‘Coast is Clear’ 🌊

 

Guided by Coast is Clear’s founder, Mark Galea Pace, a diverse team of volunteers, made up of people from different countries, worked together to clean up the sea. They focused on hard-to-reach spots along the shoreline and areas where waste often collects due to sea currents.

The cleanup effort resulted in over 500 kilograms of fishing lines and 16 bags of debris being collected from the sea and shore. Among the waste were items like torn nets, plastic containers, and single-use plastics.

The collected waste was disposed of responsibly. This cleanup also brought attention to ‘ghost nets,’ abandoned fishing nets that continue to harm marine life.”
