Seeing the 3 chem toilets at the Molyvos carpark literally going to waste, b/c of local prejudices, was outrageoushttps://twitter.com/mpodil/status/634626843396734976 …

Lesvos would benefit much if a practical, even profitable, way could be found to collect & reuse the discarded life jackets & deflated boats
Scavenging could be beneficial if done ethically (beaches would be cleaned, and engines may pollute), but ethical scavengers are a minority.
The scavenging issue is an aspect of the refugee/local socioeconomical system, not the most important one. How to shelter & feed people is.
Scavengers' early detection for boats is on the ball, but they don't notify the activists, spread thin over the coastpic.twitter.com/SFtpQVd4z8
Finding a way to keep beaches clean would deflate racism, too, as one local demonstrated (until I reminded him how Greeks treat beaches)
As the weather turns cold, refugees will need indoor shelters, heaters, actual showers. Protection from rain/wind is virtually non-existent.
Believing that bad weather will stop refugee arrivals is a fallacy. 15 boats arrived today, 7 drowned yday, sea already choppy last few days
