LANGANES CLEAN-UP: A CALL OF ACTION TO PROTECT THE END OF THE WORLD

The objective of this call of action is to create movements and revolutions. It is to protect the arctic coasts from large pollution, to empower individuals to be the change we need for the planet and more importantly to send a message of hope for the Arctic!

Description of the project:  A 3 days team up effort to clean up along the shores of Langanes Peninsula. These activities will be launched as an open event for everyone that is interested to participate as a volunteer on the experience. We will also have time to explore the area to discover amazing places and learn from biologists, scientists and locals about the biodiversity, landscapes and history of the places. We know that whales visit the surrounding waters in summer time but sighting efforts have been rather poor in these areas till the date. We want to register and study the whale presence from these stunning cliffs if weather and time allows with the help of the volunteers. We will visit as well the gannet colony that is established in this area to raise awareness about sea bird entanglements.
