More Information

Citizen scientists collect, sort, and identify microplastics in their local area. By creating vivid maps of microplastic pollution hotspots around Australia, this work will enable communities and government to implement behaviour change, regulate industry, and develop better waste management systems. Solutions come fast when you can actually see the problem!
