Event Inspiration
Our East Cork coast line is spectacularly beautiful with views of Ballycotton Lighthouse to the West and Caple Island to the East. Plastics are washed ashore daily from households and the fishing industry. However they reached the water through accident, omission or carelessness it is important to remove what we can from the Sea. Micro and nano plastics are harmful to aquatic life and to the health of our waters. Not being able to swim in waters because of pollution causes a pain for the waters and for those that can not use the water. Waist that gets flushed into public sanitation services enevitably ends in the sea or blocks up water pipes. Picking up one piece of plastic results in one less piece in that moment. I love our Seas and waterways and their inhabitants and know it connects us all. Caring for it offers something back for all it gives and continues to give.
