awarded: 1st place Litter less Campaign

Marine litter is one of the major problems related to litter in general. This bottle, which was left on the sand, is going to end up in the sea and carried away.

Plastic releases a lot of chemicals in the sea which affects all animals. Animals taking in poisonous chemicals eventually end up in our system once we eat such animals.

A number of garbage bags together with a broken chair were dumped in the natural environment.
