One night a tropical storm fell over the island, bringing with the tide in garbage, in the morning to leave the beach full of rubbish. This regularization hero decided they would not leave the island looking for in this way, and grabbed some bags. In a period of two hours they had cleared the beach of all litter, occur almost on a deadly sea snake while they were at it!
