Why BCEAO beach?
Faced with the accumulation of plastic waste and other detritus, the need for action was pressing. Popular with locals and visitors alike, BCEAO beach deserves special attention. This action is part of a global initiative to raise awareness and promote sustainable ecological practices.
An initiative that's just getting started
This clean-up is only the first step. The organizers hope to extend the initiative to other beaches and mobilize more players, including schools, businesses and local authorities. The aim? To make preserving the environment part of everyone's daily routine.
A global challenge
According to the United Nations, households, small businesses and public service providers generate between 2.1 and 2.3 billion tonnes of municipal solid waste every year, including packaging, electronic equipment, plastics and food waste.
