Take3 is a movement a global community of likeminded people, and a forum for individuals to tangibly make some good every day.\u00a0 It urges you to \u2018take 3 pieces of rubbish when you leave the beach, waterway or&#8230;\u00a0 anywhere\u2019 and reduce environmental pollution. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s a ritual try to keep at our beloved Manly beach if I\u2019ve swum, surfed, or ran, and one that\u2019s even more important in the national parks and secluded beaches I visit along our coastline. Over the weekend, surfing on the central coast, I spent 1 minute before heading to the carpark to collect a bottle cap, a cigarette butt, and a few other plastic items from a 15m2 area. It must have been my lucky day \u2013 as I also stumbled across $5.<\/p>\n<p>There should be no escape in anonymity and we all have the responsibility to look after our oceans, cities and waterways.\u00a0 Take some pride in your patch &amp; Take 3!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Edge Environment\u2019s monthly \u2018Make More Good\u2019 donation sends $300 to a worthy cause nominated by a staff member.
