As ever, thanks all you wonderful trundlrs so much for your amazing support!
We're proud of our long-term partnership with Sussex Wildlife Trust, who cover a diverse terrain, tackling many of the natural heritage challenges that are seen across the UK. So, we’re excited to share that, as part of trundl's own carbon-saving mission, we’re going to support the Trust's marine recovery initiative through their Fishing Net Recycling Scheme 🐟️🦦 The Sussex Fishing Net Recycling Scheme collects and recycles fishing nets, which often end up in landfill or as "ghost gear", harming the seabed ecosystems. Recycled nets are then transformed into material for building or creating new products like kayaks and furniture ♻️ Each of our Marine Recovery trundls for Sussex Wildlife Trust will fund the transportation of a whole vanload of nets to the recycling center and the first of these trundls will run from November 1st-21st. To join in and help fund this initiative, use the app, press 'Go trundling' and turn your walks into vital steps to save our seas 🪸 #recycling #marineconservation #charitywalk As outlined in the Blue Carbon Mapping Project, The English Channel and Western Approaches region holds massive carbon stores in its seabeds - an estimated 35.8 million tonnes of organic carbon and 90.5 million tonnes of inorganic carbon in just the top 10 cm. Disturbing this coastal ecosystem can release large amounts of carbon into our atmosphere 🐚🪼
