Versova Beach in Mumbai is hospitable to Turtles again

I grew up right next to this beach in Mumbai, on the Arabian Sea. Between slums, sewage, and littering, the beach had turned into an eyesore and the pollutants had made the water inhabitable. I last visited this beach 5yrs ago and can’t believe how much it seems to have changed today. The beach has been cleaned up and is actually hospitable to marine life again. The significance of this may be hard to notice for some, but I never in my wildest imagination could have ever expected this to happen in a city that’s bursting on its seams and barely keeping it together. This shows how people *can* make a difference if they work hard and don’t give up.
