A couple of pieces of #litter on every walk is all we ask to protect animals, communities & the #environment. Not a big ask if you love dogs. We have a vested interest don’t we?
Join 26,000 dog owners removing 38+ million pieces every year…a few bits at a time. dogsofx #snow

My friend who is wildlife guiding on a cruise ship at the moment sent me this picture from Svalbard today. A bit of extreme beach cleaning required 😅 🏃♂️🏃♂️
Just goes to show that plastic gets everywhere – at Ullapool, Scotland

Irvine Beach is an award winner again!
Thank you to everybody who helps make sure the beach is fabulous all year round. Here's to another brilliant summer season.

It’s disappointing to see the EU opposing world-leading UK sandeel protections. Closing sandeel fisheries will help protect puffins & other seabirds, whales, dolphins and seals & boost fish like Haddock. We’re 100% behind @DefraGovUK pressing ahead with these protections

Scottish Government marine nature restoration consultation. Promoting and enabling communities to undertake responsible restoration in their local marine environment will be vital to reversing biodiversity decline in our seas and coasts.

Today we @mcsuk launch the 2023 State of Beaches report!
A huge thanks to over 3000 volunteers in #Scotland for submitting vital litter data!

No amount of litter picking is going to fix this. This is the result of systemic over consumption and a reliance on single use items. We all need to do our part to reduce our impact on the planet.

❄️What a way to kick start our 2024 beach clean season ! Brrrhh!
Thank you to the volunteer who joined us today at Newburgh beach - together staff and our volunteer removed 5kg of litter.
As this event was impacted by the weather we will be running another clean on the 26th Jan!

Dad has just set up a FB group for beach cleaners in N W Highlands to assist & log all the plastic pollution washing up on our beaches. Extends from Redpoint in the South to Cape Wrath in the North.
