Given the amount of plastic litter there is in our towns, cities, countryside and coastlines, Natracare wants to inspire local communities to take action, take responsibility and to be proud. Why not send us photographs of your event, showing us before and after and a diary entry of what you are doing to join us on March 20th 2010. Natracare will add your pictures to the SISTERs WALL on our website and give a roll of honour to all taking part. Come and join in, be part of the solution. http://natracare.com//E50/312/en-GB/Coastal-Cleanup.aspx Wed, 24 Feb 2010 12:00:00 The Wave http://natracare.com//N34/28/en-GB/The-Wave.aspx Over 60,000 people marched through the streets of London and Glasgow on December 5th ahead of the beginning of the two-week, UN climate summit in Copenhagen which starts on Monday 7th December 2009.
