Students get Information on Plastics in the Sea

Initially, about 40 students of the Wilhelmshaven comprehensive school (IGS) informed themselves on marine litter at ICBM. Later on, the young „environmental managers“ showed themselves impressed by the amount of plastic bags, fag butts, glas bottles and further debris they had been able to gather in just one hour at the Schillig shoreline.

Wilhelmshaven. Initially, about 40 students of the Wilhelmshaven comprehensive school (IGS) informed themselves on marine litter at ICBM. Later on, the young „environmental managers“ showed themselves impressed by the amount of plastic bags, fag butts, glas bottles and further debris they had been able to gather in just one hour at the Schillig shoreline.

Pupils of the grades five to ten at IGS have the chance to engage as „Environmental Managers“ in ecological topics. The further education event on „Plastic Marine Litter“ was organised by IGS in collaboration with ICBM doctoral candidate Rosanna Schöneich-Argent, Mayra Lenz (Voluntary Scientific Year at ICBM) and Anka Albrecht, Jade University of Applied Sciences. The students were thrilled by the event without exception. Despite their youth they were likewise concerned about the extent of litter pollution. Now they want to deepen the subject at school by gathering ideas on „plastic abstinence".
