Planning a day at the beach? Always: ☀️ Check tide times & keep a look out for an incoming tide ☀️ If walking along the beach, make sure you have enough time to return to land safely ☀️ Carry a phone on you so you can call for help

The Strandliners team at work. Identifying and recording our environmental pollution is increasingly important. We can lobby for change when we have the data. Everyone can take part. #nurdles

Only a handful of govts are blocking progress on the global #plasticstreaty but failure will belong to everyone. With just a few hours to go, we need @ShintaroIto205 @s_guilbeault @Teresaribera @State_E @SteffiLemke @BjellandEriksen to speak up for tackling plastic production.

We've since discovered that these 'mystery objects' are also washing up on the Isles of Scilly as well as in Ireland and France. Anyone else finding them? We found these in Ireland last week. https://t.co/D3hDLfdRT2

We also record #BioBeads (waste water treatment media used predominantly by water companies to clean our water). There have been catastrophic losses in the UK in the billions since 2010. Ratio was 95:47 = lower than previous years. 3/4

Aim is to record where #nurdles are found (beaches, rivers, waterways etc) & support evidence to reduce the environmental impact of the #plasticsindustry & #gasandoilindustry, it is their raw material anyway! Let's think about #plasticpollution in whole lifecycle of plastic. 2/4
