ICC days of action

On the Island of Rugen we had fine stormy weather, fantastic girls and boys and two messages in a bottle. They were send two days earlier from Warnemünde (about 80km)and obviously "speed swam", drifted eastward with the storm to this coastline near Dranske. Amazing.

Warnemünde - information day about marine litter from various organisations - EUCC-D, NAJU, BUND, DJH, up cycling atelier, beached art

International Coastal Cleanup Day 2017

It is the weekend of the annual International Coastal Clean-up Day initiated by Ocean Conservancy. A worldwide day of action to clean up beaches and shores.

This year I am not going to organize a beach clean-up because I am invited to join a group of schoolchildren and the teacher who is doing this for years and years with his pupils on the island of Rugen in Germany. Fantastic!

On Saturday 10:00 there will be an information event at the lighthouse Warnemunde with different organisations working on the subject of marine litter. A beach clean-up starts at 14:00.

See you there!

day on the beach

It is a mixture of ice cream sticks (western Germany), sun milk (eastern Germany), sand toys (both of them). Collected on an east German island called Rugen. Please to all of you on the beach - take all of your stuff back home. Have a nice day on the beach!

(And a lemon juice bottle bleached by the sun - fantastic finding)

monitor screen

The same day we found a monitor screen with - I guess - Chinese letters. I don't know if its a TV or some nautical equipment. So anyway the new program is about marine litter.
