Leave sand castles, not plastic! – Naturefriends International gives tips to create less plastic waste in daily life and on holiday.
Ten million tons of plastic waste go into the oceans each year. Popular destinations, such as Mallorca, Turkey, Bali or the Maldives, fight against the plastic flood on their beaches.
