Using geolocation technology, Lanzarote environmental group Papacr\u00eda has tracked some 800 illegal dumping grounds across the length and breadth of the island. Not only does fly-tipping damage the landscape, but it also threatens Lanzarote’s status as a Biosphere Reserve, enjoyed since 1993. Other environmental organisations on the island are also joining the fight against these visual eyesores.<\/p>\n

In 2017, Papacr\u00eda began a campaign targeted at schools to raise awareness about the effects of dumping litter and rubbish in natural spaces. The collective\u2019s spokesperson, Jos\u00e9 Go\u00f1i, explained, “It marked a shift in our approach; instead of cleaning up, we decided to put a spotlight on the problem and shock people into action with hard-to-ignore images.\u201d He also points out, “As well as being a wake-up call for local authorities, who should be implementing sanctions rather than simply ordering clean-up operations, it\u2019s also about getting kids on board so they nudge their family and friends to help put an end to this antisocial behaviour.<\/p>\n

\"Alerta<\/a>
\nThanks to the Papacr\u00eda app\u2019 and the \u2018keep your rubbish to yourself campaign\u2019, almost 50% more dumps have been brought to light than in 2020\u2026but the number is still growing. In February, students from Zonzamas Further Education College studying Environmental Education and Control reported an increasing number of illegal rubbish dumps on the outskirts of Arrecife.
