Croatia, as well as Italy, is faced with the increasing problems that mass tourism brings with it. If we want to maintain our tourism, which is currently one of the strongest economic branches in the Republic of Croatia, we need to synergize on several levels and cross-border. Campaign we are planning to launch&nbsp;with an event&nbsp;on the&nbsp;Split&nbsp;Riva on July 12th 2018&nbsp;from 6 pm, is named <strong><em>Let&#8217;s Beach about It<\/em> <\/strong>with the slogan <strong><em>All Together for a Cleaner Adriatic<\/em><\/strong>. It is a word game that should encourage us to talk about it, to make the moment of leaving the beach&nbsp;as one where we perceive the problem and&nbsp;decide we can make a very positive impact. Every time we start packing to leave the beach, we can look&nbsp;around and we will certainly notice some sort of waste. This waste can be picked up in a second&nbsp;and in this way&nbsp;prevent further pollution of the beach and the sea.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"result_box\" lang=\"en\">An individual can contribute to reducing the problem. Every time we go to the beach or find ourselves in the vicinity of the sea, it is necessary to find out what kind of damage an accidentally lost piece of plastic, bottle, ice cream, plastic bag, inflated bearings, glasses and the like can cause for the marine ecosystem and consequently health and the safety of people.
