Interactive marine debris map
The interactive tool below illustrates the percentage of each debris category found in the IMCRA regions around Australia.
The information gathered to compile these quantities comes from various sources. These include WWF's annual marine debris surveys in northern Australia, datasheets received from users of The Net Kit: A Fishing Net Identification Guide for Northern Australia and beach survey and clean up work performed by interested parties, school and community groups around Australia.
How you can help
You too can help clean up our oceans and coastlines. Contact WWF for some recording forms and arrange for your local school or community group to clean up your local beach.
