| During the course of your Ocean Initiative, did you find and collect biocarriers? | No |
| Do not hesitate to ask us questions about the wastes you have found or to write us anything that seems useful for the Ocean Initiatives. Feel free, the best ideas never remain stowed in the drawers. | We started counting what we collected but at the end of the activity we collected so much, between plastic, paper, and all kind of litter. There is an abnormal amount in any estuary and something should be done to avoid the litter going into the sea and pollute our ocean and marine companions. We will continue support this initiative and try to give you more pictures and details in the future. |
