Guernsey Beach Cleans and Beachwatch 2009
The States of Guernsey Environment Department co-ordinates and organises the Marine Conservation Society's annual Beachwatch event. This year's Beachwatch will be on the weekend of 19 and 20 September. Guernsey Climate Action Network has adopted two Guernsey beaches to clean at least on a quarterly basis. These are Rocquaine Bay and Champ Rouget by the Chouet Tea Room. Litter washes up from the sea particularly after storms. This litter comes from shipping, fishing boats, and from other countries. During the summer months some island residents and visitors litter the beach. Besides litter being unsightly it poses a hazard to wildlife. It is the responsibility of all of us to pick-up litter and dispose of it in a suitable litter bin. Sometimes hazardous material washes up and this should be left for the authorities to dispose of safely.
