The Nin Tourist Board, the University of Zadar and the global foundation MBRC the ocean (which operates in Croatia through the Eko Kvarner association) are organizing a cleanup of the Queen's Beach in Nin on Friday, February 9, 2024, starting at 10 a.m.
Employees of the Nin utility company were involved in the aforementioned action, Saltworks Nin and volunteers of the newly founded ecological association Nin Eden.
This is only the third action by the MBRC the Ocean Foundation in the Adriatic, after many carried out across the planet, especially in the so-called third world countries, where ocean pollution is growing dramatically, especially with plastic.
The point of the Hamburg-based foundation's activities, in addition to removing waste from the coast and recycling it, is production of useful or decorative items from collected waste, the sale of which finances the following actions.
In addition, the largest part of all the foundation's resources is invested in the continuous education of pupils and students, as well as their teachers and professors, because only by strengthening the education of future generations can we prevent the mistakes of our generation and the generations of our ancestors from being repeated.
Our wish is for this campaign to become traditional, i.e. to be held several times each year at a number of selected locations, and to be accompanied by ongoing education in schools and universities across Croatia, especially in the winter months, says the Nin Tourist Board.
