Whilst that may be true for much of what is floating out in the open ocean
I fill a large carrier bag every day with plastic litter from our local
beach. I can assure you that its not stuff from the Far East.


Well done you! I'll pick up the occasional bit of litter and stick it in
a nearby bin, but I don't have the gumption to bring a bag along and
pick up large quantities.


My wife and I bring a large reusable shopping bag each and litter pickers
and use them whilst were walking the dog.

In the big scheme of things it maybe isnt making a huge difference but it
makes us feel happier about using the beach. We seem to have stimulated a
few €ścopy cats€ť by our actions.
