ER Pitch

And that's a wrap!

The “Nurdle Clean Up”, beach cleanup programme was successfully conducted on the 17th of June 2022 at the Mount Lavania beach with the collaborative effort of the ER Pitch of University of Colombo, MAS Active, the Pearl Protectors and the Rotaract Club of Royal Institute, Colombo.

More than a year has passed since the MV X-press Pearl contaminated our ocean and beaches.
Yet within a short span of time, our collective efforts yielded in 4.15 kg of nurdles and 26 kg of polythene, glass and plastic waste.

Small efforts, therefore, sum up to enormous results!
Catch a glimpse of how the clean up went!
