TAKE 3 FOR THE SEA
BEACH CLEAN-UP
As part of our Xanthe Project™ initiative, the HQ team at SARAH & SEBASTIAN took part in a beach clean-up in May at La Perouse in Sydney, hosted by our partners TAKE 3 FOR THE SEA
WE LEARNED
Microplastics have made their way into our food and water sources and we ingest a credit card-sized amount every week.
WHAT SHOCKED US
On arrival, the beach appeared clean and rubbish-free, but upon closer inspection, it was littered with large plastic waste, microplastics and debris.
WHAT WE WALKED AWAY WITH
The importance of observing our daily plastic consumption and making a big impact through small everyday changes, especially saying no to single-use plastics.
WE CALL ON OUR COMMUNITY TO
Take 3 for the sea! We simply encourage you to remove 3 pieces of rubbish every time you leave a beach or waterway and inspire others to join the cause.
