Tout d’abord, au début de la marche nous pensions ne rien trouver étant donné que les déchets était bien cachés sous les arbres au bord de la rivière. Les déchets sont donc très difficiles à remarquer de prime abord, ce qui laisse penser que la zone est totalement propre alors que nous avons récolté de nombreux déchets de toutes sortes. Nous avons également contacté un journaliste de La Dépêche Du Midi de la ville d’Auch qui est venu faire un reportage sur notre collecte et qui est passé dans le tirage de La Dépêche Du Midi d’Auch du 18 août 2022, de quoi faire un peu de publicité ! |
