Such an inspiration!

This is possibly the cutest environmental activist we’ve ever seen! Meet Liam, the 8-year-old Gozitan kid who is currently swimming from Comino to Hondoq Bay to raise awareness on plastic pollution.

In a video shared to his facebook page, Liam explains his cause and the reason why he’s swimming, saying he wants to “make people aware of the damage that plastic is causing to the sea.” If this isn’t a great show of activism, we don’t know what is! Keep rocking, Liam!

Watch his message here:

Wishing you the best of luck, Liam!
