NEW PHOTOS OF RUBBISH

The photos of the rubbish you saw with the trademarks on, were taken on the western coast of Portugal in 2006.

 

It was a dreary day, very misty. We went to the beach nevertheless. If you look at the background picture you don't seem to notice much rubbish. Just a large piece of Styropor.

 

The reality was stunning. We had taken more than 200 photos of rubbish within a hundred yards within half an hour.

 

This was so impressive to Lin-Yana that she couldn't forget this.  She was only eight years old at that time. When I discovered a way to make a free website she was eager to make a website about this. So this project started.

 

The beach you see on the background photo is at 38°05'N  8°48'W.

 

We strongly emphasize that we love that country and all the other countries we will show here in this documentation. We were welcome and everybody was very friendly. So we don't want to hurt anybody.

 

But there is this wish that our envirnoment should be cleaner, not only for us and our children and grandchildren but for the animals too.

 

Meanwhile we have been travelling a lot. Some places I went to without my daughter as she had to go to school. I brought back not only wonderful photos of phantasic landscapes, but also impressive photos of horrible pollution. Have a look at some of these here. 

 

And don't forget to do something about it.
