Beach cleanup data to come handy in efficient solid waste management system
Around 2,000 volunteers from across Puducherry came together on Saturday to participate in the International Coastal Cleanup event coordinated by the Indian Coast Guard Station.
The beaches are strewn with disposable cups, water bottles and plastic bags. This is a very sad situation, since these materials will greatly affect the coastal environment, Commandant of the ICGS Puducherry N. Somasundaram said. Gandhi Statue area is the most affected because that is where all the vendors and the maximum crowd come in.
