SUMMARY:GBGW 2025 - Henley Rotary's Plasticblitz
DESCRIPTION:Henley Rotary’s Plasticblitz\nTowpath in front of River & Rowing Museum – 10am start\nSunday 8th June 2025\nJoin Henley Rotary Club on their Plasticblitz – a river litter pick from Marsh lock to Hambeldon lock\, with a citizen science twist! \nThe Plasticblitz is not just another litter pick. It is about pushing for change at a high level\, altering people’s habits and raising awareness of the ultimate danger of plastics to our health\, as well as that of the environment. This is citizen science in action. A survey is conducted of the rubbish collected and the data from this is submitted to international studies. It is then used to lobby large companies with the aim of pushing major manufacturers to reduce their use of single-use plastics. \nMany people think of plastic waste as being a problem primarily affecting our marine environments. In fact\, 80% of this pollution passes through our rivers and streams on its way to the sea. Many of our rivers are now effectively channeling plastic from inland areas to the sea. However\, once plastic has entered our rivers\, there is no statutory obligation for any organisation or public body to remove it. \nCollective action is therefore needed to address this issue and stop plastic from entering our rivers. \nPlasticblitz is a project running all year round\, culminating in the National June Plasticblitz in partnership with Thames 21 and the Environment Agency. \nLitter pickers\, gloves and bags will be supplied. Please wear sturdy footwear and clothes to suit the weather conditions. \nEmail Phil Fletcher to join
