1. Life's A Beach ======================================================================== October 15th, 2001 1. Life's A Beach: About 2,500 Cook Island volunteers took part in the nationwide coastal cleanup project. That's according to Rarotonga Environmental Awareness Program (REAP) spokesman Bruce Gray, who yesterday extended a big meitaki maata to all those who participated. The cleanup was held over a week last month in an effort to clean up some of the litter on island beaches. Gray says it was good to note that there was noticeably less litter on the beaches this year. He attributes this to greater awareness and responsibility on the part of the public, residents and visitors, as well the introduction of REAP's Adopt-A-Beach program. Under this program a section of beach is adopted and cleaned by volunteers every month.(PIR). __END__
