The 2 weeks of the year that are most critical to help make Bahia de Tenacatita the most plastic-free bay in the world are now upon us.
Please let me know if you want to borrow a litter grabber & bucket.
Personally, my strategy is to daily patrol the beach within the tideline about 1.5 hours before sunset during these 2 weeks. The best I can cover is from the lagoon to Figaro's, and how much of that route I can cover depends on the amount of plastic.
Yesterday, I picked up 8 gallons from the lagoon to Figaro's. There are a lot more people on the beach today, and it will increase daily. The peak traffic is likely to be this Friday & Saturday.
Usually, there is much less traffic on Easter Sunday and during Semana Pasqua.
After Semana Pasqua, I will return to 3-4/times a week for early morning patrol, and cover as much ground as I can in 1.5 hours.
