Another piece of ghost gear is tagged with a #ProjectReCon buoy! Our partners at Ports North spotted this ghost gear drifting in Boyd Bay, Weipa. A GPS buoy was attached and this 2m long, 1m wide, and 6m deep ghost gear is now under our watchful eye until it can be removed.
#RUBBERCRUMBFAIL - Hinchinbrook Shire, Ingham - Rotary Park Both rubber crumb loss from the park surface & plastic strips are coming out of reinforced concrete. In the tropics, mould growth needs high pressure hosing. So there is no surprise this type of pollution occurs.
Back in 2007, Wally stumbled upon plastic resin pellets for the first time. This started our mission to influence the plastics industry to stop losing feedstock during their operations, and eventually the implementation of Operation Clean Sweep in 2015. #Decade2ForTangaroaBlue
Legend long term volunteer Boyd will never let a piece of #marinedebris get the better of him. He has spent three full days making a dent in removing this trawling rope.
. @TangaroaBlue is receiving $3.5m to support #marinedebris removal & prevention activities across the #GreatBarrierReef. Funding will help continued delivery of the #ReefClean program. Learn more or to get involved: brnw.ch/21wHnSz🐠 🪸#ReefTrust 📷 Tangaroa Blue
Celebrating 20 Years of Tangaroa Blue Here is a throwback to October 2005 during our first Cape to Cape Beach Clean-up. We cleaned 30 sites with 100 volunteers helping between Cape Naturaliste and Cape Leeuwin in the southwest of WA. #Decade2ForTangaroaBlue
Another day, another #ProjectReCon buoy delivered. This one is going onboard Queensland Parks And Wildlife Service's Reef Ranger! @SatlinkSL #GlobalGhostGearInitiative #GGGI #CitizenScience #GhostNetWatch #OceanConservation #AMDI
Great evening celebrating at the launch for the 2024 Clean Up Australia Day in Sydney! We love the new CUA branding - well done for giving such a fresh new look to such an iconic Australian charity - we look forward to working with you in 2024! #cleanupaustralia #marinedebris
This year marks Tangaroa Blue's 20 year anniversary and to honour this huge milestone, we're making it a year-long celebration! Stay tuned for details on special events throughout the year. #Decade2forTangaroaBlue
Can you spare 5-10 minutes to fill our #ReefClean survey? Your valuable feedback will help us understand how our work may have impacted your knowledge and attitude towards marine debris. We're eager to ensure we're supporting you effectively. forms.gle/1WzpbuhLXCnnW7…
We have just wrapped up a string recycling pilot with @TennisAustralia at the @AustralianOpen! The recovered tennis strings can now also be processed through our #RigRecycle network.
As well as being destructive on-ground, ex Tropical Cyclone Jasper has had an impact on our beaches in the northern #GreatBarrierReef. That's why @TangaroaBlue is leading cleanups. Learn more: bit.ly/3RVbS6f 📷 | Reef Clean
150m+ of thick mooring rope was found snagged up on the reef. It was untangled and secured on a mooring with two #ProjectReCon buoys attached as we waited for the Cyclone to pass. Now the winds have settled, it was recovered and removed from the Great Barrier Reef! @SatlinkSL
#Chemicallightsticks are used for a variety of purposes, including in the commercial fishing industry to attract target fish. Volunteers from Coolum & North Shore Coast Care have picked up hundreds of these while monitoring turtle nesting beaches on the Sunshine Coast.
Oh the irony... #plasticseahorse #marinedebris
Here is a Summer Roll wrapper found on the Tasman Peninsula, tucked away in the sand dunes... used by date is March 1988! #Plasticpersists #marinedebris #AMDI #tangaroablue
We are very proud of this collaboration with @SatlinkSL - showcasing what can be done through the Australian Marine Debris Initiative (#AMDI) when clean-ups, data collection, tracking to the source and source reduction plans all come together with the right partners.

#AMDI is hitting some big numbers! Thank you to everyone who has added to the Database so far.
How do I tell if the GPS buoy I found is a #ProjectReCon buoy? Read below! @SatlinkSL #GlobalGhostGearInitiative #OceanConservancy #ghostnetCollective #amdi #ghostnet #ghostgear
A big THANK YOU to @ecobarge (#ReefClean partners) for providing us with all the commercial fishing beacons they have collected this year on their clean-ups! Some of these beacons will be repurposed for #ProjectReCon to track ghost gear found in our oceans. @SatlinkSL
