To celebrate World Ocean’s Day in Wellington, we are initiating a MAMMOTH beach clean up of Evan’s Bay along Cobham Drive. We do monthly small beach clean ups here but due to the overwhelming amount of plastic that gets washed up in the tides here, we need LOTS of YOU to make a real impact. It’s one of the easiest ways you can make an immediate difference to the environment. Every piece of plastic and rubbish you pick up, is one less piece that can end up wrapped around or ingested by wildlife. Take some time out of your day to come and join us. You don’t need to stay the whole two hours, even just half an hour or an hour would will make a difference. We meet at the carpark on the ocean side of Cobham drive right under where the planes land and take off. See you there!

Time is 8 Jun 2013 , 10:00 am – 11:30 am
