In Khmelnytskyi, in the Kamianets-Podilskyi district, activists held a "Megatoloka na Bakota" during which 200 bags of garbage were removed from the coast.
40 volunteers from the "Clean Up in the Mountains" eco-movement joined the cleaning of Bakota, Serhiy Tolstikhin, one of the organizers of the action, reported on Facebook.
He said that the garbage was removed in the area of the village of Gorayvka. Waste was taken out on three full trailers.
Tolstikhin emphasized that Anatolii Tymchuk, the head of the Staroushytsk Territorial Community, helped to remove the garbage.
The activist said that after the eco-action the volunteers were given a tour by Taras Horbnyak, a Bakotologist.
"A huge thank you to everyone for co-organizing the event and participating. We invite you to the next talks," he added Tolstykhin.
