About this video
Three pieces of litter may sound like a small contribution. Take 3 for the Sea starts there: when you leave a beach, waterway or another place, take three pieces of rubbish away with you. The Australian movement makes environmental participation easy to understand and repeat.
Its wider work includes education, community clean-ups and efforts to reduce single-use plastic. The aim is to turn a brief moment of care into an everyday habit, while encouraging others to join in. This story follows a simple invitation that has travelled far beyond its original coastline.
