Lautoka, Fiji – On Saturday last week (11th March 2023), the Lautoka City Council’s Health Department and Department of Environment launched a clean-up campaign to restore the beauty of the Marine Drive seafront. The campaign aimed to create awareness among the public about the importance of keeping the environment clean and preserving marine life.

The Marine Drive seafront is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, but the area has been plagued by litter and garbage, which has been detrimental to the marine ecosystem. To tackle this issue, the LCC Health Department and Department of Environment organized a clean-up campaign, which saw the participation of over 60 volunteers.

The volunteers, including employees of Sofitel Fiji Resort & Spa, employees of Tanoa Waterfront Hotel, members of Lautoka Tennis Parents Association, members of the public and employees of various companies, worked tirelessly to collect garbage and clean up the seafront. The clean-up campaign involved removing debris such as plastic bottles, cigarette butts, food wrappers, and other waste that had been left behind.

The campaign was about cleaning up the seafront and educating the public on the importance of preserving the environment. Participants were educated on the harmful effects of littering, and the importance of recycling and proper waste disposal.
