Is 2 minutes enough to change the world? | Martin Dorey | TEDxKielUniversity

As an avid surfer and beach lover, Martin Dorey has become increasingly alarmed at the state of our coastlines where large amounts of marine litter are washed up on a daily basis. In a passionate talk, he shows us what is possible when we just devote 2 minutes of our time to actually do something against this issue.

Martin Dorey is a writer and surfer. He runs a copywriting business, Copy Monkey Limited, and has recently finished his third book about camping, camper vans and food, a subject that led to him presenting a BBC television series ‘One Man and His Campervan’ in 2011. Dorey is also an environmentalist, beach cleaner and beach lover and co-founded The Beach Clean Network, a not for profit, in 2009. After the winter storms in 2014 he created the #2minutebeachclean project, an idea that uses social media to inspire beach cleaning and social responsibility.
