Meet ‘Star’ - the plastic-eating, aquatic mammal
‘Star’ is a metallic frame structure, four metres by two metres in size, which is being deployed at Camp Bay today, on World Oceans day, as the ideal receptacle for all plastic items. Beach users are encouraged to dispose of these in an environmentally friendly fashion.
‘Star’ can be easily emptied once full in order to start receiving plastics items again; its contents designated for recycling.
The aim is to continue to raise public awareness, regarding the dangers of plastic contamination in our marine environment.
This campaign is conducted as a general public initiative and we, therefore, encourage everyone to actively participate.
Please try not to use disposable plastic, but if you do, please feed plastic to ‘Star’, said statement.
