How’s everyone feeling about the ban on plastic

How’s everyone feeling about the ban on plastic drinks stirrers, plastic cotton buds, and polystyrene takeaway packaging that came into effect on 1 October?!Did you know that data collected through Litter Intelligence, Sustainable Coastlines’ national beach litter monitoring programme, helped to inform this ban? The team here is feeling pretty stoked, and we’re proud that all the mahi put in by our dedicated citizen scientists is bearing fruit! If you’ve been a part of Litter Intelligence, or an SC donor or supporter, know that YOU helped this happen.Here’s to seeing less plastic on our beautiful beaches — and to the next plastic ban coming into effect! 🐬Read more at the link in our bio @SUSTAINABLECOASTLINES@environmentgovtnz #citizenscience #litterdata #datainsightsaction #beatplasticpollution #zerowaste #marinelitter #plasticpan #polystyrene #polystyrenesucks

It’s our pleasure to once again pass on our empl

It’s our pleasure to once again pass on our employee of the month award, the Calypso, to our next winner — congratulations Bella, our amazing Litter Intelligence administrator!!Bella has been a wizard not just this month, but ever since she joined SC. She has made herself an indispensable member of the LI and wider SC team, silently smashing beasts of tasks and bringing a steely determination and excellence to everything she does. Her effort goes mostly unseen because it’s in the background, but it is so crucial. She has such an empathetic, joyous way of approaching any issues and can make a task feel a little less daunting because she lets you know we’re in it together! Arohanui e hoa, ka pai tō mahi ❤️ we are so lucky to have you Bella!#calypsoaward #protectwhatyourlove #employeeofthemonth #team #appreciation #teamworkmakesthedreamwork #love #whānau
