10 benefits of cleaning up your local beach.

As we reforest our oceans through our new seaforestation projects, it’s also important to remember our shorelines. If you head to the beach almost anywhere in the world, you’ll likely see evidence of human impact, like balloons, cigarette butts, and plastic pieces. Keeping our local beaches clean helps protect marine habitats and wildlife, while fostering a deeper appreciation for these beautiful natural spaces we all share. Here are the top 10 benefits of cleaning up your local beach.

10 Benefits of Cleaning Up Your Local Beach

1. protects marine animals.

Over the past few years, we’ve been shocked by headlines about sea life dying due to consuming or getting trapped by the waste we throw in the oceans. When our garbage washes up on coastlines, it’s our chance to take it out before the tide drags it back out. By removing the trash we find on the beach, we’re doing our part to make sure that marine animals don’t get hurt by it.

2. Perserves our natural environments

Beaches are amazing places for us to explore and enjoy together. But when they’re covered in trash, it puts these natural spaces at risk. That’s why cleaning up your local beach is so important – it helps ensure that everyone, from near and far, can appreciate the beauty of your beach.

3. Removes toxic chemicals from the water

Cigarette butts are the most widely littered item on our planet. They’re also one of the most common types of trash found in our oceans. Although they’re small, cigarette butts are capable of polluting a huge amount of water – if just one butt is left to soak for an hour, it has the potential to contaminate up to 8 litres of water with unhealthy and dangerous chemicals. If you pick up 10 cigarette butts from the ground, you’re saving nearly 800 litres of water from contamination.

4. Benefits the local community

Seaside communities benefit in many ways from fishing and tourism. When their beaches are clear of litter, people are more likely to visit, spend money in the area, and enjoy activities like scuba diving. Plus, the clean water makes it easier for fishers to make a living. So, by joining a beach cleanup, you can help the local economy.

5. Creates a safer environment

Litter isn’t just an eyesore – it can be dangerous, too. Sharp pieces of metal and glass, which can easily be hidden in the sand, can cause serious injuries if you’re not careful. So if you see any hazardous items like this, be sure to take extra caution when picking them up.

6. Able to dispose of trash properly

Doing litter cleanups yourself is a great way to dispose of waste properly. Many recyclable and compostable items end up in landfills, where they can’t break down. Take the time to sort out what can be recycled and composted—it makes a real difference.

7. Makes seafood safer

It’s true – what goes in the ocean can end up inside of us. A recent study from Ghent University in Belgium found that people who eat seafood consume an average of 11,000 tiny plastic particles each year. Over time, these chemicals can build up in our bodies and cause health issues. That’s why cleaning up your local beach is so important – it’s one way to create a healthier world!

8. Gets you outside

Nothing beats the feeling of sand between your toes, the warmth of the sun on your skin, and the fresh sea breeze. Beach cleanups are a great way to enjoy the natural beauty of the ocean and nearby beaches while doing something good for the environment.

9. Provides important data

Be ach clean – ups are an important way to collect data and get a better understanding of beach pollution . Volunteers can document what they find and how much of it there is . This info can help policymakers  figure out what ‘s causing the pollution and come up with ways to reduce it .  The data can also be used to measure how successful beach clean – ups are and to identify areas that need the most attention .

Beach Pollution 101

Litter, sewage, plastic, and other pollutants do more than just ruin the beauty of the beach. They are closing down coastal areas, destroying marine life, and making people seriously sick.

One of our greatest natural resources has become a garbage dump—and the results are taking a toll on human and marine health. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), billions of pounds of pollution end up in our oceans each year, and the majority of it comes from human activities along the coastlines and inland. Understanding the devastating effects of pollution on our beaches is the first step to fixing the problem.

What is beach pollution?

Why is beach pollution a problem, beach pollution solutions.

Beach pollution is any harmful substance that contaminates our coasts, ranging from plastic, trash, and litter to sewage, pesticides, and oil. Excess amounts of natural substances, such as nitrogen and phosphorus from fertilizers and animal waste, are also pollutants.

Litter and garbage

These are the most visible types of beach pollution. Litter such as cigarette butts, food wrappers, and plastic bottles can simply be left behind by beachgoers. More indirectly, residential or commercial trash that is not properly disposed of will also eventually reach our beaches—rain reliably washes trash through storm drains, and rivers and streams carry it to the ocean. Litter is also bad in the Great Lakes , the world’s largest freshwater ecosystem. The accumulation became so extreme that Lake Erie was once labeled “the poster child of pollution” (although it is slowly making a comeback thanks to a multistate and international partnership and funding provided by Congress).

Nutrient pollution

While nitrogen and phosphorus are naturally occurring parts of the ecosystem, an overabundance of them in our waterways can have a devastating impact on the environment and human health. Large-scale industrial agriculture practices have dramatically increased the amount of both elements in our soil, air, and water, thanks to commercial fertilizers and animal manure, which contain large amounts of these nutrients. Fertilizer and manure are both applied to crops to help them grow, but often they’re applied in excess. Anything that isn’t absorbed can be washed into waterways by rain or leach through the soil to a nearby groundwater source. 

Additionally, animal waste generated by concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) can spill from storage structures into waterways during storms. Common household items such as dish soaps, dishwasher detergents, and fertilizers can also contribute to nutrient pollution. Many of these cleaning products contain a form of phosphorus called phosphate, which can travel down our drains and eventually wind up on our beaches.

Too much nitrogen and phosphorus in water can cause algae to grow much faster than usual. These colonies of algae, referred to as harmful algal blooms (HABs) , can take over large swaths of water and are detrimental to aquatic ecosystems, blocking light and depleting oxygen. They can also release toxins that sicken humans and wildlife.

Wet weather discharges

Wet weather discharges include any end-of-pipe contaminants that are brought to the ocean through precipitation, such as rainfall and snowmelt. There are three types:

Stormwater runoff Stormwater runoff happens when rain or melted snow flows over paved land and does not soak into the ground. As the water travels over sidewalks, parking lots, and roads, it picks up and accumulates pollutants including trash, chemicals, oil, and dirt. Water can also pick up harmful pollutants (heavy metals or organic chemicals) near industrial and construction sites. Newer underground drainage systems—those built since the 1950s—tend to separate this surface runoff from sewage by maintaining two different networks. In these two-pipe systems, stormwater is collected at inlets and discharged directly into a nearby body of water. 

Although this system was designed to reduce the risk of sewage overflows, it may actually increase the amount of pollutants in our coastal waters because it directly dumps untreated runoff into our waterways. The EPA estimates that more than 10 trillion gallons of untreated stormwater enter our coastal waters every year, and NRDC’s research found that stormwater runoff is the biggest cause of beach closings and advisories.

Combined sewer overflows (CSOs) According to the EPA, there are still more than 860 municipalities in the United States with older systems known as combined sewer systems (CSSs). CSSs funnel domestic sewage, industrial wastewater, and stormwater through a single set of pipes to a waste treatment facility to be processed and then dumped in a nearby body of water. During periods of heavy rainfall, however, the wastewater volume in a CSS can exceed the capacity of the sewer system or treatment facility. For this reason, the sewers have been specifically designed with overflow pipes so that the mixture of sewage and stormwater doesn’t back up into buildings, including homes. The resulting combined sewer overflow (CSO) dumps raw, untreated sewage into lakes, rivers, and coastal waters. CSOs are a common source of raw sewage appearing on beaches, particularly in the Great Lakes basin.

Sanitary sewage overflows (SSOs) A sanitary sewage system (SSS) is another type of waste system that collects and transports industrial and domestic wastewater to a treatment facility. Unlike CSSs, SSS pipes are not designed to carry much rainwater and therefore have a smaller capacity. These systems, especially if old or undersized, often let raw sewage leak out into nearby bodies of water if there is any type of heavy precipitation. The EPA estimates that there are at least 23,000 to 75,000 SSOs per year in the United States, making them one of the biggest causes of wet weather discharge.

Overflows from combined and sanitary sewer systems are both categorized as point source pollution, or pollution that originates from a single, identifiable source such as a factory, sewage treatment facility, farm, or septic tank. Point source pollution is less common than nonpoint source pollution, which is caused by rainfall or snowmelt moving over and through the ground and comes from many diffuse sources but often has a larger and more destructive impact.

The impact on public health

Polluted beaches pose a serious health risk for people who come in contact with dirty water or sand. Ten percent of all water samples collected in 2013 from 3,500 coastal and Great Lakes beaches failed to meet the EPA’s most restrictive benchmark for swimmer safety. The EPA estimates that up to 3.5 million people get sick from being in contact with sewage while swimming; children are the most vulnerable because they tend to swallow more water. Bacteria, fertilizers, animal and human waste, and trash can cause a range of illnesses for beachgoers. The most common is an upset stomach, but swimmers can also suffer neurological disorders, respiratory ailments, pinkeye, earaches, meningitis, and hepatitis. People with compromised immune systems, small children, and seniors may even be at risk of death.

Because there is a lag between contact with contaminated waters and onset of symptoms, most people don’t even realize it was the beach that caused their illness. One study found that people can get sick without even going into the water—contact with polluted beach sand was enough exposure to sicken them.

A notable example of the effect that polluted water can have on public health is the Santa Cruz River at the Arizona–Mexico border. Replenished by discharge from a nearby wastewater treatment plant, the river has been slowly polluted by sewage as the decades-old waste pipeline deteriorated. The governor of Arizona had to declare a state of emergency in 2017 as heavy rainfall ruptured the pipeline. After the breach, health officials found that E.coli bacteria levels were so high during an initial test, they exceeded capabilities of field equipment and surpassed recommended levels. Border patrol agents have suffered chemical burns from wading through the water due to the presence of industrial waste, including heavy metals, chemical solvents, and even DDT. The cost to replace the wastewater line is about $80 million , but finding the funding is proving difficult. The Arizona state government allocated $2.6 million in 2019 to help repair the sewer line, and a funding bill was introduced in Congress the same year with the goal of directing $4 million to cover future maintenance costs.

There is another health concern in addition to sewage contamination: Harmful algal blooms (HABs) can also cause serious illness in humans . Several species of phytoplankton produce toxins that can cause serious and potentially life-threatening symptoms in people who come in contact with or ingest them. Effects can include paralysis, seizures, vomiting, and cardiovascular problems, among others.

The impact on animals

It is estimated that beach pollution affects more than 800 species of wildlife around the world. More than 100,000 seabirds, sea turtles, seals, and other marine mammals die each year after ingesting plastic or getting entangled in it. Animals can easily mistake floating plastic for food, causing them to choke, sustain an internal injury, or starve. The ingested plastic can then move through the food chain, eventually reaching the stomachs of seafood-eating humans. Plastic pollution has become so overwhelming that it is even affecting sea turtles’ reproduction rates because it alters the temperature of the sand where incubation typically occurs.

HABs are also detrimental to marine wildlife. HABs consume oxygen when they die and decompose, creating dead zones—areas with little or no oxygen. This not only kills off feeding sources for larger aquatic animals but also destroys habitats. Some types of HABs also damage or clog fish gills or block sunlight for beneficial algae and seagrasses.

In 2015, parts of the U.S. West Coast experienced significant impacts of a large-scale HAB. The toxic bloom affected wildlife, including anchovies, seabirds, whales, and sea lions, and resulted in closures of recreational and commercial fisheries in California, Oregon, and Washington. The bloom involved the proliferation of Pseudo-nitzschia diatoms, a type of microscopic alga that produces a neurotoxin called domoic acid.

The economic toll

In 2013 an NRDC report found that beaches in the United States had experienced more than 20,000 closings and advisory days in the previous year due to pollution and contamination. It found that more than 80 percent of the closings were related to near-shore bacteria levels that violated public health standards. Closed beaches directly impact the economies of coastal destinations: Americans take more than 900 million trips to coastal areas and spend around $44 billion on those trips every year. Beachside cities and economic activities associated with the ocean play a sizable role in the U.S. economy. Having these beaches closed due to pollution not only ruins the experience of beachgoers but adversely impacts local businesses and the tourism industry in the region.

Policy enforcement and change are two essential ways to address pollution on a national level. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has the biggest responsibility to enact preventive and reparative programs and laws to protect our beaches. 

One of the solutions for beach pollution is enforcing all aspects of the Clean Water Act (CWA), including regulations pertaining to wastewater management, stormwater pollution, CAFO manure management , and oil and hazardous substance spill prevention and response. The amount of regulatory enforcement undertaken by the EPA varies according to the presidential administration. The Obama administration adopted rules that generally implemented the protections of the CWA appropriately, but the Trump administration has taken several actions to undermine the law’s enforcement.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is also working in collaboration with the EPA and other federal agencies to control nonpoint source pollution through monitoring and assessing the exact causes.

You can speak up for policies that you support by contacting your federal, state, and city representatives. To make a real impact on beach pollution, encourage lawmakers to pass legislation that limits agricultural pesticides and promotes organic farming and eco-friendly pesticide use, cuts down on industry and manufacturing waste, and increases funding for state water-quality monitoring and notification programs to inform the public about possible health risks. 

You can also support state and local legislation that encourages green infrastructure as a control on stormwater runoff. Porous pavements, green roofs and parks, roadside plantings, and rain barrels are all able to stop rain where it falls—letting it evaporate or filter into the ground—instead of carrying runoff into our coastal waters. They can also help cleanse the air, reduce asthma, save on heating and cooling costs, and boost economies.

Personal action, too, can go a long way in reducing beach pollution. Beaches are for the public to enjoy, and it is also our responsibility to help keep them clean. There are easy everyday steps one can take to help reduce ground leaching of chemicals and toxic materials, reduce carbon emissions, and protect marine wildlife, such as eating organic foods to limit the demand for pesticides, cleaning your home with natural ingredients, and avoiding chemical pesticides in your yard. We can also work together to minimize plastic use to help save marine wildlife—and our oceans.

Speech on Keeping the Beaches Clean

Our beaches are getting dirtier and dirtier by the day. Picnicking on the beach is a common summer activity, and the huge rush of people who flock to the beach to enjoy a carefree day usually never bothers to look back on the debris that they leave behind. As a result, our beaches get polluted by trash, containing everything from gum wrappers to soda cans. Most of these items get carried away by sea during high tide, and, since most of these things are made from non-biodegradable materials, they remain floating on the waters for indefinite periods. This causes untold misery and even death to marine life, who either mistakenly ingest or get caught in objects like plastic packets and aluminum cans.

Speech on keeping the beaches clean

Clean up after ourselves The best thing that we can do to keep our beaches clean is to take care of our belongings ourselves. It is alright to carry out a fully-fledged picnic on a warm summer day at the beach, but it is also our responsibility to clean up after ourselves. One good idea would be to carry a trash bag with us, in which we can drop all the discarded items like crisp packets, soda cans, food wrappers, and even empty lotion bottles. This way, we can carry the discarded items back with us and deposit them in our trash cans back home for recycling, instead of letting them clutter up the beach.

Avoid store-bought, packaged goods Instead of buying crisps and soda, and water in use-and-throw bottles, it would be a good idea to carry home-cooked food along with us. If we carry some sandwiches and French fries in lunchboxes, and some fruit juices in our regular use water bottles or flasks, that would save us the issue of having to discard the empty packets, cans, and bottles. It is really the healthier option, both for ourselves and for the environment .

Clean up after our pets Family outings to the beach are not just for humans, but for our four-footed friends as well. While you will of course give them a free rein to enjoy themselves on the sand and in the water, it is also up to you to keep a sharp look out. Carry a BM bag and a pair of rubber gloves with you so you can pick up after your pet so no one has to step on anything but the sand. Do not throw the litter into the sea; it would not be nice if something other than water washes up to you when you are taking a dip.

Avoid glass items It is best to steer clear of glass items while on the beach. Most of us would be playing and running around on a nice beach outing, and the chances of glass bottles and plates falling and breaking is really high. Picking up pieces of glass from the sand may not be an easy task, and you will likely miss out on some jagged pieces here and there, causing potential danger to yourself and others.

The beach is one of the nicest places to go and relax, either with your family or by yourself. But if we do not take care of these sandy shores, we may well be looking only at dirty, littered beaches that will be far from enjoyable. We live on this planet, and it is our duty to ensure its resources are taken care of.

On the other hand, the beach also represents adventure. It’s a playground for surfing, diving, and other water sports. The coastal ecosystem, brimming with diverse marine life, provides opportunities for exploration and learning. The unending horizon invokes a sense of mystery and curiosity, pushing one to venture beyond the known.

The Sublime Power of Nature

Lastly, the beach is a testament to the sublime power of nature. The vast expanse of the sea, the towering waves, and the unpredictable weather patterns are humbling reminders of our insignificance against the forces of nature. It is a place that inspires awe and respect for the natural world.

In conclusion, the beach, with its serene beauty, adventurous spirit, and sublime power, holds a unique appeal. It is a place of paradoxes, where tranquility coexists with adventure, and humility with awe-inspiring grandeur.

500 Words Essay on Beach

The beach, a place of relaxation, invigoration, and inspiration, has been a magnet for humans throughout history. It’s a natural arena where the elements of earth, water, and air converge, creating an environment that’s simultaneously soothing and stimulating.

Geographical Significance

From a geographical perspective, beaches are much more than just beautiful landscapes. They are dynamic systems shaped by the intricate interplay of geological, biological, and climatic factors. The constant ebb and flow of tides, the sedimentary processes, and the impact of weather patterns all contribute to the ever-changing profile of a beach. It’s a living testament to the power and persistence of nature.

Ecological Importance

Ecologically, beaches host a diverse array of flora and fauna, serving as crucial habitats for many species. The intertidal zones teem with life, from microscopic plankton to larger marine creatures. Coastal vegetation, such as mangroves and sea oats, help stabilize the sand dunes, playing a vital role in preventing beach erosion. These ecosystems are delicate, often bearing the brunt of human activities and climate change, necessitating concerted conservation efforts.

Symbolism in Culture and Literature

In culture and literature, beaches have been potent symbols. They’ve been portrayed as places of solitude, romance, and introspection, offering a canvas for writers and artists to explore the human condition. The beach’s dual nature, both comforting and wild, mirrors our own internal struggles and triumphs.

Beaches as Socioeconomic Hubs

The socioeconomic aspect of beaches cannot be overlooked. They are hubs of tourism, driving local economies through a myriad of activities like swimming, surfing, and beachcombing. Beachfront properties are prized real estate, and coastal cities often rank among the world’s most vibrant metropolises. However, this economic boon can come at an environmental cost, necessitating sustainable development practices.

Therapeutic Value

The therapeutic value of beaches is widely acknowledged. The rhythmic sound of waves, the warmth of the sun, and the tactile sensation of sand beneath the feet can have a calming effect, reducing stress and promoting mental well-being. The beach also offers a space for physical activities, contributing to overall health.

The Future of Beaches

The future of beaches, however, hangs in the balance. Rising sea levels, pollution, and unchecked development pose significant threats. It’s incumbent upon us to safeguard these natural treasures for future generations. This entails a shift towards responsible tourism, stringent environmental regulations, and public awareness campaigns about the importance of beach conservation.

In conclusion, beaches are more than just scenic locales for leisure and recreation. They are dynamic systems, rich ecosystems, cultural symbols, economic powerhouses, and therapeutic havens. As we bask in the beauty and bounty of beaches, we must also strive to protect and preserve them. Their survival is not just a matter of environmental concern, but a testament to our ability as a species to live in harmony with nature.

Almost 9 out of 10 pounds of Great Lakes beach litter each year is plastic, new report finds

essay about beach cleaning

An average of 86% of the litter collected each year on Great Lakes beaches is plastic, according to a new report based on 20 years of data collected from more than 14,000 beach cleanups.

The report by the Alliance for the Great Lakes offers a grim reminder that plastic never fully disappears . Instead, it breaks down into ever-smaller microplastics, which are a threat to the environment and human health.

While plastic pollution in oceans often gets the most attention, the damage in the Great Lakes is arguably riskier, since people drink the water, said Olivia Reda, volunteer engagement manager at the Alliance for the Great Lakes and author of the report.

Every year  22 million pounds of plastic  winds up in the Great Lakes, half of which goes into Lake Michigan, according to a 2016 study from the Rochester Institute of Technology. Most of the microplastics present in the lakes are about the width of a human hair.

The report also outlines ways to reduce plastic pollution, noting that while individuals can certainly make a difference, substantial change will require action from businesses, governments and manufacturers.

Here are three key takeaways from the report.

More: More than 11 million pounds of plastic pollutes Lake Michigan and its beaches annually. New technology is coming to the rescue.

Most of the litter is smaller than a quarter

Between 2014 and 2023, 40% of the litter collected was considered "tiny trash," including pieces of foam, glass and plastic less than 2.5 cm − or smaller than a quarter. At first glance it may not seem like there is a lot of this small trash on the beach, Reda said, but once people dig for it, they see how much is there.

Food related waste consisted of 27%, smoking related waste was 22% and the remainder was classified as other.

The report also ranked the top litter items and compared them over time. Between 2003 and 2013, the top three litter items collected were cigarette butts, food wrappers and drink caps and lids. Since then, plastic pieces have topped the list, followed by cigarette butts and foam pieces.

Since 2003, the amount of plastic collected at Great Lakes beaches has been fairly consistent, according to the report.

Over the past two decades since the alliance started collecting data, volunteers collected more than 1.7 million pieces of plastic on Great Lakes beaches.

Plastic foam, which is often referred to as the brand name Styrofoam, is a particularly problematic kind of plastic that is common in food packaging, construction and insulation. Volunteers removed more than a half million foam pieces on beaches since 2014.

Once foam gets into the water, it's nearly impossible get out, the report said.

Plastic producers need to make a dent in the problem

The Great Lakes don't have currents like oceans do, so the litter that people see didn't wash up from far away. It's there because someone put it there, Reda emphasized.

A suite of technologies , like an aquatic robot vacuum and a beach comber, are being used to clean up trash from beaches in the region. In Wisconsin, much of this work is being done by students at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh.

Some other, broader solutions include getting rid of single-use plastic bags; using filters in washing machines to remove microplastics before they enter waterways, like the Great Lakes; and increasing access to water bottle refilling stations.

But according to Reda, significant change will need to come from policy makers and businesses.

One way to do this is to hold producers responsible for the products and packaging they design, and encourage them to make less single-use plastic. Fisk Johnson, CEO of Racine-based SC Johnson, testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works advocating for these policies in March.

Policies like this are in place in some states in the U.S., like California, Colorado, Maine and Oregon as well as on the Canadian side of the Great Lakes in Ontario and Quebec. On the U.S. side of the lakes, a bill is moving forward in Minnesota and, according to the Alliance for the Great Lakes, there will be a bill introduced later this year in Michigan.

"We can't recycle our way of this," Reda said. "We need plastic producers to join the fight."

The report is the result of a massive citizen science effort

While data from the report are from beach cleanups from the past two decades, the cleanup effort has been going on for 30 years. Since then, 200,000 people have participated, picking up 9.7 million pieces of trash that totaled more than half a million pounds.

This is the power of citizen science and communities coming together to fix a problem, Reda said.

More: Is going green a contradiction for SC Johnson? No, says CEO Fisk Johnson in a rare Q&A. It's a necessity.

The twenty-first century is the era when populations of cities will exceed rural communities for the first time in human history. The population growth of cities in many countries, including those in transition from planned to market economies, is putting considerable strain on ecological and natural resources. This paper examines four central issues: (a) the challenges and opportunities presented through working in jurisdictions where there are no official or established methods in place to guide regional, ecological and landscape planning and design; (b) the experience of the author’s practice—Gillespies LLP—in addressing these challenges using techniques and methods inspired by McHarg in Design with Nature in the Russian Federation in the first decade of the twenty-first century; (c) the augmentation of methods derived from Design with Nature in reference to innovations in technology since its publication and the contribution that the art of landscape painters can make to landscape analysis and interpretation; and (d) the application of this experience to the international competition and colloquium for the expansion of Moscow. The text concludes with a comment on how the application of this learning and methodological development to landscape and ecological planning and design was judged to be a central tenant of the winning design. Finally, a concluding section reflects on lessons learned and conclusions drawn.

Encampment cleanup near marshlands on track, county supervisor’s office says

Some of the homeless encampments that stretch into protected marshlands.

Although there have been some challenges in getting it organized, the cleanup of homeless encampments near marshlands between Huntington Beach and Newport Beach is on track to begin late next week, according to the staff at Orange County Supervisor Katrina Foley’s office.

In an interview Wednesday, deputy chief of staff Alyssa Napuri said Foley’s office has been in contact with roughly 50 residents from Newport Beach for about a year. Residents had been asking for the county to coordinate with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to dredge the federally protected marshlands in the area for some time, but in the last two weeks, those same residents raised alarm about the proliferation of encampments there.

“[Residents] said they noticed the encampments growing at an exponential rate and that the trash and debris were flowing out into the creeks. That marshland is protected because it is sensitive habitat and home for a number of endangered species. We have a trash and debris catcher in the flood channels to trap what can, but we were told by some of our staff that some individuals would try and break the [catcher’s] gate,” Napuri said. “It’s been fixed, but people also sent videos of those individuals starting fires in the marshland.”

In a statement issued Tuesday, Foley said her office has been working in coordination with the federal agency since at least February to try to get county and Newport Beach public works personnel onto the land near the Santa Ana River. Foley said the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has allowed access, but that the planned cleanup date — April 26 — is too far off to wait for access.

A gate closes off the protected marshland nearby the Santa Ana River.

“We must clear this unsafe encampment and help the residents into treatment, shelter or housing,” Foley said in the statement. “Our county care and coordination team remains ready to help relocate individuals and connect them with wrap-around services, including permanent housing.”

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers did not respond to requests for comment.

Napuri said the cleanup was originally scheduled for this Friday, April 12, when the corps delayed it to the end of April. It was her belief that pressure put on the agency by local legislators and Foley pushed the cleanup to get underway April 19 and 20.

Napuri said it was unclear how many unhoused people might be camping in the marshlands. She said it’s possible they could be farther out into the protected lands than expected because there was evidence of kayaks and other boating equipment used to navigate the channels.

Newport Beach city spokesman John Pope said a formal count has not been made but that at least six to 12 people are camping there.

Anyone encountered who is trying to live in the marshlands will be referred to the Costa Mesa Bridge Shelter and other emergency temporary housing.

“Our position has been that we are ready and eager to work with our partner agencies to get the job done. It is federal land, so we are deferring to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, but our public works department will be out there to assist in the cleanup along with the police department,” Pope said. “It’s a multi-jurisdiction effort, and I believe we all have the same goal of cleaning up the encampments and placing people through services into, hopefully, permanent housing.”

Pope said a cleanup took place in the same area last year. Residents have raised concerns to the city for a few months, with those complaints increasing over the past two weeks.

What Solar Eclipse-Gazing Has Looked Like for the Past 2 Centuries

Millions of people on Monday will continue the tradition of experiencing and capturing solar eclipses, a pursuit that has spawned a lot of unusual gear.

  • Share full article

In a black-and-white photo from 1945, nine men, some in military uniforms, stand in the middle of a New York City street. They are holding a small piece of what looks like glass or a photographic negative above their heads to protect their eyes as they watch the eclipse. The original border of the print, as well as some numbers and crop marks drawn onto it, are visible.

For centuries, people have been clamoring to glimpse solar eclipses. From astronomers with custom-built photographic equipment to groups huddled together with special glasses, this spectacle has captivated the human imagination.

Creating a Permanent Record

In 1860, Warren de la Rue captured what many sources describe as the first photograph of a total solar eclipse . He took it in Rivabellosa, Spain, with an instrument known as the Kew Photoheliograph . This combination of a telescope and camera was specifically built to photograph the sun.

Forty years later, Nevil Maskelyne, a magician and an astronomy enthusiast, filmed a total solar eclipse in North Carolina. The footage was lost, however, and only released in 2019 after it was rediscovered in the Royal Astronomical Society’s archives.

Telescopic Vision

For scientists and astronomers, eclipses provide an opportunity not only to view the moon’s umbra and gaze at the sun’s corona, but also to make observations that further their studies. Many observatories, or friendly neighbors with a telescope, also make their instruments available to the public during eclipses.

Fredrik Hjalmar Johansen, Fridtjof Nansen and Sigurd Scott Hansen observing a solar eclipse while on a polar expedition in 1894 .

Women from Wellesley College in Massachusetts and their professor tested out equipment ahead of their eclipse trip (to “catch old Sol in the act,” as the original New York Times article phrased it) to New London, Conn., in 1922.

A group from Swarthmore College in Pennsylvania traveled to Yerbaniz, Mexico, in 1923, with telescopes and a 65-foot camera to observe the sun’s corona .

Dr. J.J. Nassau, director of the Warner and Swasey Observatory at Case School of Applied Science in Cleveland, prepared to head to Douglas Hill, Maine, to study an eclipse in 1932. An entire freight car was required to transport the institution’s equipment.

Visitors viewed a solar eclipse at an observatory in Berlin in the mid-1930s.

A family set up two telescopes in Bar Harbor, Maine, in 1963. The two children placed stones on the base to help steady them.

An astronomer examined equipment for an eclipse in a desert in Mauritania in June 1973. We credit the hot climate for his choice in outfit.

Indirect Light

If you see people on Monday sprinting to your local park clutching pieces of paper, or with a cardboard box of their head, they are probably planning to reflect or project images of the solar eclipse onto a surface.

Cynthia Goulakos demonstrated a safe way to view a solar eclipse , with two pieces of cardboard to create a reflection of the shadowed sun, in Lowell, Mass., in 1970.

Another popular option is to create a pinhole camera. This woman did so in Central Park in 1963 by using a paper cup with a small hole in the bottom and a twin-lens reflex camera.

Amateur astronomers viewed a partial eclipse, projected from a telescope onto a screen, from atop the Empire State Building in 1967 .

Back in Central Park, in 1970, Irving Schwartz and his wife reflected an eclipse onto a piece of paper by holding binoculars on the edge of a garbage basket.

Children in Denver in 1979 used cardboard viewing boxes and pieces of paper with small pinholes to view projections of a partial eclipse.

A crowd gathered around a basin of water dyed with dark ink, waiting for the reflection of a solar eclipse to appear, in Hanoi, Vietnam, in 1995.

Staring at the Sun (or, How Not to Burn Your Retinas)

Eclipse-gazers have used different methods to protect their eyes throughout the years, some safer than others .

In 1927, women gathered at a window in a building in London to watch a total eclipse through smoked glass. This was popularized in France in the 1700s , but fell out of favor when physicians began writing papers on children whose vision was damaged.

Another trend was to use a strip of exposed photographic film, as seen below in Sydney, Australia, in 1948 and in Turkana, Kenya, in 1963. This method, which was even suggested by The Times in 1979 , has since been declared unsafe.

Solar eclipse glasses are a popular and safe way to view the event ( if you use models compliant with international safety standards ). Over the years there have been various styles, including these large hand-held options found in West Palm Beach, Fla., in 1979.

Parents and children watched a partial eclipse through their eclipse glasses in Tokyo in 1981.

Slimmer, more colorful options were used in Nabusimake, Colombia, in 1998.

In France in 1999.

And in Iran and England in 1999.

And the best way to see the eclipse? With family and friends at a watch party, like this one in Isalo National Park in Madagascar in 2001.

Jürgen Mossack speaking outside as four reporters hold microphones close to him

Panama Papers: trial begins of 27 Mossack Fonseca employees

Law firm’s founders among those to face money laundering charges after leak of 11.5m files in 2016

A criminal trial of 27 employees working for the law firm at the heart of the Panama Papers on money laundering charges has commenced in a Panamanian court.

Eight years ago, leaked financial records from the law firm Mossack Fonseca sparked international outrage at the use of offshore companies by wealthy individuals to commit tax fraud and hide assets.

In 2016, files from Mossack Fonseca were leaked to reporters at the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung and shared with the US-based International Consortium of Investigative Journalists. Reporters from more than 100 media organisations, including the Guardian, collaborated to investigate the 11.5m files.

The firm’s founders, Jürgen Mossack and Ramón Fonseca Mora, are among those facing charges. They have previously denied any allegations against them, arguing that they had no control over the offshore companies that the firm set up for its clients. If convicted, they reportedly face up to 12 years in prison.

According to the Associated Press , Mossack attended the hearing to declare his innocence, telling reporters outside the courtroom that he was “very optimistic”. A representative for Fonseca told the court that his client was in hospital.

Battered by international criticism, Panama adopted new legislation modernising the country’s legal definition of money laundering in 2019. Aspects of the charges against the Mossack Fonseca employees concern activities predating the change in the law, which could complicate prosecutors’ attempts to convict them, according to the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists .

Panama’s supreme court previously ruled that creating shell companies used for tax fraud could not be considered a crime if the companies in question were created prior to 2019.

Mossack and Fonseca were both acquitted of separate charges two years ago after a judge directed that the firm did not handle or attempt to hide money stolen from Brazil as part of a major corruption scandal involving the state oil company codenamed Lava Jato or the Car Wash.

Offshore companies linked more than 100 politicians from around the world, including 12 national leaders, were discovered by journalists analysing the Panama Papers. They included $2bn in an offshore company belonging to the Russian cellist Sergei Roldugin, the friend of the President Vladimir Putin.

Nawaz Sharif , then prime minister of Pakistan, and Sigmundur Davíð Gunnlaugsson , prime minister of Iceland, were both forced from office amid public fury at hidden offshore wealth connected to their families.

after newsletter promotion

Sharif was disqualified from office and sentenced to 10 years’ imprisonment by the Pakistani supreme court after reporters discovered undeclared real estate secretly owned by his family through offshore companies. Gunnlaugsson was forced to resign after it was revealed that he had never declared his family’s ownership of an offshore company with a $1m claim against one of Iceland’s failed banks.

After publication of the Panama Papers investigation, countries around the world initiated proceedings to recover unpaid taxes that had been hidden using offshore companies. By 2021 more than $1.36bn in fines and penalties for unpaid taxes were said to have been recovered by exchequers around the world, including $253m recovered by HMRC in the UK.
