Look at the colour of that sea.  Glorious!  A tropical beach?  No, it's St Ives in Cornwall.  We really do have world class coasts!

Looks nice and clean too.  Yesterday I made a little plea about beach litter, including cutting down on plastic bag use.  You may remember it's a bit of a bug bear (or is that 'bag bear'?!) of mine....  I've just seen that four excellent organisations have joined together to organise Break the Bag Habit, where you can call for your MP to support the introduction of a levy on single use bags in England.  I've signed it - it's a simple step for nature, and will help make our marine environment cleaner and safer. 

Well done to the Campaign to Protect Rural England, Keep Britain Tidy, the Marine Conservation Society and Surfers Against Sewage :o)
