00:00So we've seen pictures from, say, several months ago where there's tyres and other kind
00:22of waste on the seafront. We sent a drone over a few weeks ago and there's none there.
00:28Where has that waste gone? It's gone out into the sea. It has precious salt marsh habitats,
00:33there's seagrass, which the birds are feeding on, and that's kind of
00:38impacting that habitat. The birds will be feeding on microplastics that's
00:42working its way into their ecosystem. It's also washing up on the beaches,
00:46so it's impacting the local community as well. So we would support a clean-up of East Church Gap
00:51and we would say anyone out there who's concerned about it to log on and sign the petition.
