Registration required at this link: https://events.wwf.ch/de/tag-der-guten-tat-clean-up-in-zug-4a6vVj1biH/overview Most people do not realise that the Zugersee is sadly not exempt from waste. This waste has a considerable impact on nature and the environment. Due to wind, high water, and other variables, these pollutants end up in waterways and can be transported all the way to the ocean. Plastic and other waste are not only an aesthetic problem, but a concrete danger for plants, animals, and people. 📍Meeting Point Train stop Chollermulli, Zug.

Next to the Greifensee ([Der Greifensee – Google My Maps](https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1oVWQ3DGKt98YlWetNA2tXANnwC4&ll=47.32319246383582%2C8.619336872970429&z=14)), at point 9 on the map and probably along the zurich lake.

(Because message in a WhatsApp channel can be read by a new member only 30 days before he joins. But you can already enter the corresponding WhatsApp group) If you are concerned about privacy, only the admin of a WhatsApp channel can see who has voted in a poll (unlike a WhatsApp group). Please sign up only when you are certain! You can also register through Meetup, as it helps build momentum; however, I rely only on the number of people who signed up through the WhatsApp survey.
