Plastic pollution clearing

Collected recyclable waste with no value often ends up in our parks, spruits & environment. We have engaged with reclaimers on the issue of polluted spruits and the response has been overwhelmingly positive. We identify polluted sections of spruits and with reclaimer involvement and assistance we clear plastic and other pollution from these waterways.
