Marine litter poses a vast and growing threat to the marine and coastal environment. Spreading awareness about the importance of preserving natural resources and marine life and cleaning our beaches is critical. On 10th February, the Environmental Sustainability Project in Gurugram and Mumbai organised a beach cleaning drive at Juhu beach in Mumbai. 24 people participated in the event including staff members of Macquarie Group and of Humana People to People India (HPPI).
Different teams cleaned the beach and distributed pamphlets for generating awareness about the environment. Many people were reached through this campaign. Besides the beach cleaning, plant saplings were given to the employees, dustbins were installed in Malad and 500 cloth bags were given to the community for promoting sustainable habits.
