A RIVER OF LAST SUNDAY ABOUT 100 PEOPLE
WENT TO LONGLEY NATURE RESERVE
TO CLEAN UP THE RIVER. THE
EVENT WAS ORGANISED BY THE
CLEANUPRIVERS PROJECT, WHICH
HELPS TO PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT.
HELP
'Every summer local volunteers collect rubbish which is thrown in the
river,' John Sanders, from Cleanuprivers told me. This time I was one
of them. We picked up hundreds of plastic bottles, food packets and
drinks cans. But that's not all that's in the river. 'We also found car
tyres, a fridge and an old bed!' one volunteer said.
The clean-up also removes non-native plants from the river. These
plants kill off native species and affect biodiversity. At Longley we
cut down Himalayan Balsam. 'It's a beautiful plant, but dangerous
because it covers everything,' said the local plant expert, Lynn
Douglas. The clean-up was hard work but fun, and the river looked
great! So when is the next event? Check the Cleanuprivers.org
web page.
