Fighting against marine litter

Trash is everywhere at first sight when colleagues from Commercial Sales arrived at Shek O Beach. After carrying out a painstaking search of wastes on the beach, the beach was finally back to normal. During the debriefing, our community partner V Cycle showed a straw with several holes bit by fishes picked up from the beach, highlighting that plastic waste into the oceans can break up into tiny plastics in a short period of time that can be easily consumed by the marine biota throughout the food chain, thus posing a great threat to not only the marine habitat but also the health of human beings.”
