Representatives of the local tourism bureau said that the 500-meter beach needs to be quickly cleaned of plastic products, because the next storm can take them back to the sea. The head of the village located on the island, Uwe Garrel, quickly attracted the pupils of the local kindergarten to the work: the children were allowed to pick up as many toys as they wished.

He also noted that cleaning will not be a continuous fun game: in addition to toys, countless plastic bags and other packaging materials have been carried out on the sand.
