On January 2, one day before the almost historic snowfall on Sylt, an icy wind swept over the island from the northwest. But that didn't stop the ten-strong team, who met in the parking lot of the Listsauna at 12 noon to warm up.

Once again this year, the year-round Sylt r umt campaign by the marine conservation organization Bye Bye Plastik collected a lot of waste and actively protected nature. Approximately 25,000 liters of waste or just over 200 large, blue, full garbage cans were collected by a good 3150 people from the start of the interactive map for entering the clean ups on April 1, 2024 until the end of November 2025. Fabulous, says Heike Werner, founder of Bye Bye Plastik.
