Maybe have yourself in your galley suitably sized containers that are
fitted to suit the storage space so when ashore all you need is to
fill them up and dispose of the majority of waste,keep it to
minumum ,or practice at home before you go away see what you can get
away with.
Look at places like Everest and Antarctica the rubbish thats there
from Beer cans and the such . Sort of similar to our seabeds ,you may
think oh its only a few cans but then its a few more and so on,and if
every one does it ? I am not a *greeny* just thinking about the
future and the beauty of our oceans.I love and respect the sea.
