住在英国北约克郡海边小镇的拉布拉多犬莫莉(Molly),两年内在沙滩捡了逾25万件的沙滩垃圾,成为当地著名的“沙滩环保兵”!

莫莉的主人弗利斯卡特(Fliss Cater)表示,在当地看到不少泳客乱扔垃圾后,她便对莫莉进行了培训,以寻找如塑料瓶、绳索、水桶、玩具和鞋子之类的丢弃物品。

斯卡特于2017年搬到斯卡伯勒镇之后,每天都在捡垃圾,同年的12月,莫莉(Molly)进入了她的生活,自那以后他们就无法分开了。

斯卡特谈到莫莉时表示,它是我最好的伙伴,我们一起工作、一起生活、一起玩耍,它几乎一直在我身边。

“我们大约每两周就可把垃圾箱装满,在我的车库里,大概有60%的海滩垃圾,并会把这些垃圾回收给当地的艺术家,用来制作艺术品及雕塑。”

同时,斯卡特也保存了可重复使用的水桶、铲子及沙滩玩具,以借给游客们使用。

斯卡特也常在Instagram上与网民分享她和莫莉的经历,此外她还会对莫莉进行监督,以防止它被玻璃及铝罐碎片弄伤。

斯卡特也希望能有更多的民众参与这项洁滩运动,也希望莫莉的努力,会引起民众的三思,不再随意丢弃垃圾。

莫莉的热情也伴随着缺点,因为它无法分辨宝特瓶是否正在被使用,还闹出“偷走”游客饮料的笑话。

35岁的斯卡特说,在海边捡垃圾也是与潮汐竞赛的一项工作,必须要赶在涨潮前把垃圾捡起,否则垃圾流入海洋,将会危害海洋生物及环境。

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Molly loves a discarded shoe... 🐶 We seem to have the most pictures of Molly with various beach footwear (she’s even found a pair of sandals before!). Other than being without the other half of the pair, there’s never anything wrong with them (in fact most are in perfect condition!). . Maybe if shoes/sandals/flip flops weren’t so cheap people wouldn’t leave them behind 🤷‍♀️ . Perhaps if Councils fined people, it would deter careless littering 🤷‍♀️ . This “throw-away” society has a lot to answer for!! 😢 . But in the meantime, Molly gets to play with a new toy. This time we were lucky enough to save the plastic shoe from washing into the sea. Imagine how many thousands don’t get intercepted (by beach cleaning dogs 😂). . Join the movement 💪🐶 #pupsagainstplastic . 🤣 and doesn’t Molly look cute mid-shake 😂😂 . . #beachdogs #beachdogsofinstagram #beachdogsarehappydogs #beachlitter #take3forthesea #2minutebeachclean #moreplasticthanfish #surfersagainstsewage #keepbritaintidy #litterpick #litterpickingdogs #beachclean #beachcleaningdog #nomoreplastic #saveourseas #ecodog #labradorable #labsofinsta #uklabs #labradorsofinstagram #scarboroughuk
