A great corporate clean-up event with the crew from the Water Corporation Desalination Plant at Kwinana. 12 volunteers, over 200kgs of rubbish, including a mattress, picnic table and chairs and old beach umbrella. Over 200 glass bottles and aluminium cans. The location is known to be used by 4 wheel driver’s some of whom unfortunately leave their rubbish behind, it was definitely ‘beach user’s’ rubbish.
The crew were pretty shocked at the amount we collected and thankfully we had accesss to a vehicle to come and pick it all up and take it back to the desalination plant to catalogue for inclusion in the Australian Marine Debris Database. It would be great for this activity to lead to other local industries to getting involved so this stretch of beach could be cleaned up on a regular basis.
