What is the
International
Coastal Cleanup
Day ?
It is the world’s largest, annual, volunteer effort tackling this problem for our seas and waterways. The focus of the International Coastal Cleanup Day in Montenegro is waste reduction, in particular of single use plastics. Its enduring presence in the sea and rivers, and its irreversible negative impact on the marine and river ecosystems is killing hundreds of thousands of birds and marine animals, and has indirect negative impact on human health.
Why do we do
a Brand Audit?
Doing a brand audit that involves counting and documenting the brands found on plastic waste collected at a clean up helps identify the companies responsible for plastic pollution.
#What we will organize?
What to expect?
1. Giving instructions
You will receive instructions before the start of the cleanup on what should be collected, where to leave the trash bags, and which areas we will focus on for the cleanup.
2. Collection of litter
Each participant volunteer will be lent a pair of reusable garden gloves to collect litter abandoned on river shores and beaches during the event.
3. Separation of collected waste
On several beaches and river banks, the waste will be separated by type and brand. This will enable preparation of a Waste Audit Report that will be shared with the municipalities, the government and companies/brands.
4. Waste measurement
On each location, the quantity of waste collected will be measured. That will help us quantify litter on those locations.
Security
First aid kit
We will have a First-aid kit for minor cuts and scrapes.
Soaps
Soaps will be available to clean your hands after the cleanup.
COVID-19 Safety Measures
