Grant Activity:
Science by the Sea: Collecting Microplastics with AUSMAP
Purpose:
Plastic pollution is now recognised as one of the worlds most pressing environmental issues, with microplastics at the forefront of concern. Microplastics have detrimental effects on the environment and human health as a result of ingestion and the leaching of chemicals; the effects of which are compounded as plastics move through the food chain.
Experts from AUSMAP will share the science behind the monitoring and reduction of these plastics on Australian coastlines through a series of community sampling workshops in the field. Focused on regional beaches in NSW and SA, the project will allow participants to become citizen scientists in their own communities to help monitor and quantify microplastics on their local beaches.
