Feel free, the best ideas never remain stowed in the drawers. | La zona donde recogimos es rocosa, y no muy turística, aunque se encuentra cerca (1 km) de zonas turísticas de playa. En las playas se suelen hacer limpiezas por parte del ayuntamiento, pero no en esta zona. También había un lugar con residuos especiales, porque parecía el vertedero de una vivienda sin servicios. Nos sorprendió la gran cantidad de residuos de actividades pesqueras/acuicultura, que podían significar el 80% del volumen total, porcentaje bastante distinto al del cartel que utilizamos como soporte para las explicaciones. Recogimos 84 "agujas" de plástico, que se utilizan en las cuerdas de las mejilloneras para fijar la mejilla a ellas. |
