GLOBAL BEACH CLEAN
- THANK YOU!
- All ages
Our conservation charity SeaLife Trust has organised its biggest ever beach clean-up mission. As every year, all our SEA LIFE centres around the world are taking part in this activity to raise awareness of the need to protect our beaches and oceans from litter. It is estimated that 8 million tons of plastic waste: cigarette butts, water bags and bottles, straws, bicycle parts, welding blades... reach the world's oceans every year, roughly equivalent to the weight of more than 10 sea lions, or two beluga whales! And that by 2050, the oceans could have more plastic than fish.
From SeaLifeBenalmádena we want to collaborate with our oceans by removing harmful rubbish from our beaches.
Participants from 55 different locations worldwide, from Sydney to Europe have already taken part.

Reducing Plastic Pollution
We work globally to reduce plastic pollution by running campaigns and supporting projects that help to reduce the wave of plastic entering our oceans.
Did you know...
...that an estimated 26 million tons of plastic pollution ends up in the oceans each year where it chokes, entangles and poisons marine life, and that it kills millions of marine creatures each year?
Plastic bags, disposable cutlery, old phone covers, drink bottles, batteries… you name it, we’ve found it! And unfortunately it all poses a big threat to our marine creatures, whether it stays in our rivers or gets washed into the ocean.
