Finish your clean

Take one photo of what you collected

Snap the waste in or beside the bin it’s going into. One photo is all we need — TideyApp does the rest.

Was the waste and bin photographed together?

Quick check

Roughly how much did you collect?

A rough size is fine. The photo helps us estimate the rest — this just anchors it. estimate

Who to notify
TideyApp tries to identify the right local contact to inform. When it can, it will tell you who and offer to notify them for you. When it cannot — as in this version — it says so plainly and asks you to add the address. It never guesses.
We could not identify the local contact for you here — please add it:
Report to be sent to: not set yet
If nothing opened, send it yourself
The report text and the record are below. Copy them into any email app to the address you entered, attach your photo, and send. Nothing has been stored by TideyApp™.
On a phone that supports sharing, TideyApp™ will offer the photo and record together. On desktop, the email fallback includes the record text and asks you to attach the photo.
How this figure is calculated. Left in the sea, plastic breaks down under sunlight and releases methane, ethylene and other gases over time (Royer et al. 2018); removing it prevents that ongoing release. Retrieving and processing the waste responsibly carries its own carbon cost, drawn from DEFRA conversion factors. The net benefit shown is the first minus the second. Two things shape it and are stated openly: the avoided-emissions total depends on an assumed time horizon, and methane and ethylene are expressed as CO₂e using a stated Global Warming Potential basis (GWP100 unless noted). Marked “methodology in development.”
Privacy: TideyApp™ stores nothing on a server. Photos, locations and report records remain on your device until you choose to share them. Once you share a report with AFWR or another recipient, that recipient may receive and retain what you send.
TideyApp™ and the SCBC engagement metric, the net-CO₂e beach-clean methodology, and this report format are © A Future Without Rubbish CIC (Co.
