Get that gill net out of here!

Sivasothi — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 03:11:35 +0000

Volunteers from ST Dynamics at East Coast Park Beach Site 1 encountered a fishing net buried in the sand and didn’t leave it there – they huffed and puffed and extracted the net, removed the entangled coral and disposed of it! Well done folks!

As the Zone and Site Captains reported in, some brought back photos that we uploaded in a jiffy and watched in the lab but erm, forgot to report here. The lab computers were crawling so they took a very long while to get online. For the record there was:

Photos from the inaugural ICC Bintan, Indonesia

Sivasothi — Thu, 27 Sep 2007 12:34:19 +0000

Four of us from ICC Singapore joined staff of PT. Bintan Resort Cakrawala for the inaugural International Coastal Cleanup at Pulau Bintan, Indonesia.

The area we tackled is off the tourist route but an important turtle landing site at Pasir Panjang, along the north coast of Bintan Island. We had an invigorating morning and the thunderous rain held off long enough for us to tackle the beach and remove thousands of plastic bottles, more shoes and slippers than we ever saw before in our lives and much larger pieces of styrofoam than we are used to!

There was some serious hauling of trash up a small slope and the piles of major categories of trash was something we had been unable to do in Singapore. Now we’ll be able to use those photos to good effect during slide talks in future.

See Ranan Samanya’s album.

A long beach to cleanup!

Main categories of trash?
Plastic (PET) bottles, styrofoam and shoes, sandals and slippers!
