This is the status of #Kovalambeach beach on ECR. Tonnes of water hyacinth from upstream #Chennai rivers filled with plastic, liquor bottles, biomedical waste & trash washes ashore here. #ClimateEmergency

This is the #TamilNadu Blue Flag Beach, supposedly the cleanest. Unless, we clean #Chennai rivers, tourists coming here will be at risk. Massive pollution noticed. Right time for #TNPCB to track source.

Local fishermen are losing their livelihood due to the #pollution coming from #Chennai.

Thousands of liquor bottles, some broken, are lying on the shore. Plastic everywhere. Ban on single use plastics should be strictly enforced.
