Thank you very much to all the volunteers for your help, and to the 4 high school students who dedicated their time during their school holidays.

Why organizing clean-up actions? Garbage in the wild pollutes the soil and can be a great danger to wildlife : plastic in the digestive system, injuries, entanglement, disruption of the living environment… All those can be avoided by changing our habits!

Together, let’s take care of our Fenua and its biodiversity .

Project financed by Ungestepourlamer, with the support of Ville de Faa’a.

How does the garbage get here? In addition to illegal dumpings, heavy rainfalls drain waste from the land through the river that ends there.

Also, the swell phenomena such as the ones we’ve experienced over the last few days, bring waste in from the sea. As a result, a lot of garbage was trapped in the lagoon’s muddy soil and vegetation.
