Marine debris is becoming a massive environmental issue worldwide, with it estimated that approximately 6.4 million tons of litter is ending up in the world's oceans every year. This is a serious problem as marine debris has a wide variety of negative impacts for humans, wildlife and sensitive aquatic habitats, including the highly publicised injury and fatality to marine life through entanglement or ingestion.
Thanks to AGL we will focus on removing marine debris from Torrens Island to protect the local marine environment. The collected rubbish will also be quantified to obtain data regarding type and potential origin of the debris.
Join us to help combat this important global issue!
