More than 6.7 tonnes of waste from the sea: Why the cleanup on Mallorca is only the beginning

Answer

What can residents do to help reduce waste in Mallorca's sea?

People can help by separating waste properly, avoiding single-use items and taking batteries, electronics and bulky rubbish to the right collection points. Even small actions matter because less waste on land means less risk of it reaching the sea during heavy rain or wind. Local take-back days for old furniture or electronics can also make a real difference.
