🌊💙 World Oceans Day 2026 💙🌊
Today we celebrated World Oceans Day with a seabed and beach clean-up alongside the students and teachers of
Together, we removed and recorded marine litter found on our coastline, helping to protect local ecosystems while teaching the next generation about ocean conservation.
📊 Today’s results:
🧴 Food packaging: 54 items (straws, sachets, bags, ice cream wrappers)
🚬 Cigarette butts: over 2,000
🍾 Glass fragments: 9
🪢 Rope and string: 2 pieces
🔹 Plastic fragments (0–2.5 cm): 6
While it’s encouraging to see so many young people taking action, these numbers remind us that marine pollution remains a serious challenge.
All collected data will be uploaded to the Marnoba platform, contributing to citizen science efforts and helping researchers better understand the sources and impacts of marine litter.
A huge thank you to all the students, teachers, volunteers, and who joined us today. Every piece removed from the beach is one less piece threatening marine life.
The ocean connects us all. Let’s protect it together. 🌍🌊
