What We Find

Polystyrene
34%

100% Recyclable

Everyone talks about single-use plastic, but polystyrene is a bigger problem in Australian waterways and beaches. There are solutions.

Single-Use Plastic
36%

Still a Problem

Not just supermarket bags. Coffee cups, fruit & vegetable containers! and ecommerce shipping packaging ends up in our oceans.

Aluminum Cans
19%

Don’t Break Down

Did you know that cans take up to 200 years to break down? Better than plastic, but still a problem for our ocean wildlife.

Sponsor campaign

We are seeking long term sponsors for equipment, dedicated clean ups and costs
