THE end of the year is always the best time to start thinking about what we want to achieve in the next one and to write down our New Year’s resolutions.
With the “New Year, New You” video campaign, Clean Coasts are asking people in Kerry to choose a realistic and achievable New Year’s resolution, that people can stick to through the year: a #2minutebeachclean.
A promotion video (see below) – produced by Clean Coasts and Cube Media – shows Dave (played by Bryan Quinn) trying to go into 2023 being better and greener by being more conscious of the environment.

However, after several failed attempts, he begins to lose hope until he comes across on a #2minutebeachclean board on the beach and realises that being green can be just as simple.
Taking part in the campaign entails taking two minutes when you are outdoors to remove litter that you see along the way.
Clean Coasts ask for all participants to share images of what they collect on social media, adding the #2minutebeachclean hashtag to the photos to spread the word and inspire more people to take action.
The campaign’s aim is to let people know that they don’t need commit to a huge New Year’s resolution that they may not be able to sustain to the end of the year, but a #2minutebeachclean is an easy pledge to make that is flexible, doable and can be built on as your green year moves forward.
To help people stick to their pledge, Clean Coasts is giving away #2minutebeachclean kits to the first 200 people to pledge to this New Year’s Resolution.
To sign up to receive your own #2minutebeachclean kit, visit the Clean Coasts website at https://cleancoasts.org/our-initiatives/2minutebeachclean/ and pledge to do a #2minutebeachclean.
