After the dramatic and often devastating flood of last winter, communities are slowly returning to normal but what about the riverbanks? Here in Rossendale, Lancashire we suffered badly with the River Irwell, only 4 miles from its source, decorating trees and shrubs with dead vegetation and that scourge of our waterways polythene. With a bit of online research we found the Wolf Garten Multi Change. Mdash; 1 Comment. You are...

The blog site for www.LitterAction.org.uk. Return to Main Site. In our ‘throw away’ society, some people drop their litter on the ground even though a council rubbish bin might be only inches away. I joined the Lee Litteraction group to help remedy this situation and work towards an environment that we can all be proud of when I see how clean other countries are it almost makes me feel ashamed of our streets. We advertise events such as beach cleans on the internet, church newsletters and magazines and h...

High-speed litter-picking « Litteraction
http://blog.litteraction.org.uk/high-speed-litter-picking
The blog site for www.LitterAction.org.uk. Return to Main Site. I’ve picked litter in some strange places in my time. I’ve scrambled down banks at the entrance to the Blackwall Tunnel, trawled through the (shocking) contents of a yard behind a GP surgery and poked my picker through the bars of a fence separating a fish shop’s rubbish bins from the High Street. Nice. Until I boarded the very late 20.47 from Edinburgh to Kings Cross at York on 28. I found the guard. Can I have a bin bag please? This entry ...

The blog site for www.LitterAction.org.uk. Return to Main Site. A view from Kazakhstan – Pick up litter and carry on by Vitaliy Kin. I always bring my camera to photograph my natural surroundings, so I have been able to record the process. In reality, some refuse won’t ever reach the landfill. Why do I volunteer to pick up litter? There are tons of reasons given, but you can still think of your own reasons. You might say how annoyed you are with the issue. You may complain about selfishness and c...Well ...

http://barkingside21.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Barkingside’s local Agenda 21 community and environment group – campaigning for a sustainable future. Thursday, January 29, 2015. Electrical Safety for Mums and Dads. The Myth of “Safety Socket Covers” - unnecessary and a hazard! Children cannot poke things into British sockets - they have built in automatic shutters for protection. Modern sockets are safe, covers make them less safe. No socket covers have been approved for use in UK BS 1363 sockets. Child alert - first for child safety. Facility for thi...
