This article on the Beeb’s website talks about a massive chain made of 60,000 plastic bottle tops that’s been laid out on Whitsand Beach in Cornwall. Is this the chain that Cathapple’s group has been collecting for?

[Krisaby]

Yes, it is Beattie. Isn’t it amazing?

[beattie]

Absolutely! I’d have liked to see a photo taken from the top of the cliff, as you can’t really make out how long it is.

Are they still collecting? Do you have a link of who to take them to? 🙂

It was some time ago Pol, I don’t know that they’re still doing the beach art project. I have collected milk bottle tops for a few years as Caroline (the lady whose letter I posted about a few days ago) knows someone who collects for a charity. Now our local council is running a trial collecting a lot more plastic items than they used to and we can put milk bottle tops in for recycling.

Google turned up these –
