Great Big Story
Published on Jan 23, 2018
Over three years ago, Versova beach in
Mumbai was little more than a dumping ground for garbage and waste. After
witnessing the devastating impact the refuse was having on the ocean, Afroz
Shah decided to take matters into his own hands. What started off as a single
man’s mission to clean up his favorite childhood beach turned into the world’s
largest beach cleanup initiative. As of today, Shah and hundreds of volunteers
have cleaned up over nine million kilograms of plastic and waste, with hopes to
expand their initiative to other beaches in the future.
This story is a part of our Planet
Earth series. From mammals to insects and birds to reptiles, we share this
great big world with all manner of creatures, large and small. Come with us to
faraway places as we explore our great big planet and meet some of its wildest
inhabitants.
Grateful thanks to Mr.Afroz Shah, Planet
Earth series, Great Big Story and YouTube.
