 - International News - 10,000 surfers to paddle up River Ill to European Parliment
4pm, Monday 9th May, in the Canal Ill in front of the European Parliament, Strasbourg, surfers from the UK and France will paddle a giant inflatable poo and a 10,000 strong petition to the doors of the European Parliament building.
Joining forces with lobbying partners Surfrider Foundation, the organisations will present a 10,000 strong petition collected by the French based organisation that calls for the EU Bathing Water Directive to be modernised to better protect the health of bathers and recreational water users when they use Europe’s lakes, rivers and seas for year round recreation.
The revision of the 29 year old Directive has its second reading today and the surfers are looking for support from MEP’s for an amendment that would improve water quality at recognised recreational waters where watersports are routinely undertaken, either for competition, training or where they are actively promoted by a local watersports association.
