Celebrate Earth Day with Wardie Bay Beachwatch

Dear All,

Looking forward to seeing many of you on Sunday 12:30 sharp for our next MCS Beachwatch survey and beach clean to celebrate Earth Day.
I attach results from last time (see below). It was even worse than the same time last year. The Beast from the East brought rather a lot of litter on the angry waves, and 35.1% sewage again. We really need this to be sorted in the 21st Century, unless we’re happy with the sea being one almighty toilet.
On Sunday, there will be opportunity to go for drinks afterwards in Leith at various venues to catch up with the whole Changeworks, Zero Waste Leith, Leither’s Don’t Litter main event.
Please come to us, or join any event in Leith. Our fabulous Anna L-C from Boda Bars will be plogging the shoreline between Leith and Wardie Beach. All details of events are here in the Zero Waste Leith Overview: Earth Day Community Clear Ups.
See you Sunday! Gloves and litter picking equipment provided but please bring kids gloves if you have them.
Best wishes
Karen
