Hi there
Good and bad news re waste
- "Innovative plastic pipe bins are being used in a waste removal project – the first of its kind in South Africa – to clear discarded fishing line from beaches along the country's coastline.
The bins have been placed at beaches and fishing spots in the area and anglers are encouraged to use them to recycle or dispose of their used fishing line. Municipality officials are responsible for opening and removing the waste on a weekly basis.
The first network of 21 bins has already been placed at local beaches and popular fishing spots such as Franskraal, Gansbaai, Kleinbaai, Romansbaai, Pearly beach and Kleinmond."
