And it is also encouraging its European employees to use its own volunteering program, Days for Change, to join local beach cleaning projects where appropriate.<\/p>\n

The project was inspired by a social media plea for support from Beach Guardian, a community group founded by marine biology student Emily Stevenson and her father Rob.<\/p>\n

They were clearing plastic from beaches close to their home, but struggling to reach remote locations or take on tough tasks with their family car.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]Nissan offered the new Navara OFF-ROADER AT32, which can be fitted with a snorkel and is designed for the most extreme landscapes. It helped Beach Guardian reach over rocky terrain and remove debris like plastic nets deeply embedded in the sand.<\/p>\n

Ken Ramirez, senior vice president, sales and marketing, Nissan Europe, said: \u201cThe Navara OFF-ROADER AT32 is the perfect partner for Beach Guardian. Designed to take on the most challenging conditions like wet sand and rocks, and with a snorkel that allows it to better drive through water, it\u2019s ideal to support their work on remote beaches.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/6″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”4\/6″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_video_lightbox link_style=”play_button_2″ nectar_play_button_color=”Extra-Color-2″ image_url=”6151″ hover_effect=”defaut” box_shadow=”none” border_radius=”none” play_button_size=”default” video_url=”https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NAFlGFhGVfA”][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/6″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” scene_position=”center” text_color=”light” text_align=”left” top_padding=”4%” bottom_padding=”20″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_color=”#322c29″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_divider_height=”100″ shape_type=”tilt_alt”][vc_column centered_text=”true” column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][divider line_type=”Full Width Line” line_thickness=”1″ divider_color=”default” animate=”yes” custom_height=”10″ delay=”150″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” bg_color=”#322c29″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”light” text_align=”left” top_padding=”2.5%” bottom_padding=”20″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_color=”#322c29″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_divider_height=”100″ shape_type=”tilt_alt”][vc_column column_padding=”padding-8-percent” column_padding_position=”right” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]He added: \u201cCommunity heroes like Emily and Rob, who give their own time to try to make a difference, are an inspiration to us all.\u201d\u00a0Beach Guardian is the brainchild of Emily, 21, and Rob, 50. The pair have been collecting waste from beaches in Cornwall, UK for 10 years. They decided to set up the community group after realising the plastic problem was getting worse and could only be tackled by an army of local volunteers.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/2″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]Rob said: \u201cThe beaches people visit \u2013 where they enjoy ice-creams and watch their kids build sandcastles \u2013 are just one view of the issue. There are many more remote and unseen parts of the coastline that volunteers either struggle to reach, or need something to move larger items.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rob added: \u201cNormally we\u2019re using just our own family cars or DIY tools. Without help from Nissan and the Navara OFF-ROADER AT32, we could never have released the old nets buried in the sand dunes for years.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” bg_color=”#322c29″ scene_position=”center” text_color=”light” text_align=”left” top_padding=”2.5%” bottom_padding=”20″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ shape_divider_color=”#322c29″ shape_divider_position=”bottom” shape_divider_height=”100″ shape_type=”tilt_alt”][vc_column column_padding=”padding-8-percent” column_padding_position=”right” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” width=”1\/1″ tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text]\n
