Tangaroa Blue Foundation
Tangaroa Blue Foundation works to prevent and remove marine debris. We inspire action and empower people, organisations, businesses and governments to make data driven decisions to improve systems, processes and behaviours to stop the flow of litter at its source
We acknowledge the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the land and sea Country on which we live, learn and work, and pay our respects to Elders past, present and future.
CONTRIBUTE TO A CLEANER FUTURE FOR OUR OCEANS
You can help reduce marine debris on Australian beaches, prevent plastic pollution at its source, and support communities in tackling ocean plastic at a local to national scale by making a donation today.
Your donation will directly contribute to:
- Marine debris clean-ups across Australia
- AMDI Database, providing evidence for action
- Stop waste at its source, before it reaches the ocean
- Prevention of microplastics leaks from industry polluters
- Ghost net recovery and recycling

MARINE DEBRIS IMPACT
Volunteers, organisations and community groups from around the country join forces to find practical solutions to reducing ocean plastics.
We coordinate the Australian Marine Debris Initiative (AMDI), an on-ground network of volunteers, communities, organisations and agencies around the country. The AMDI Network monitors marine debris and its impacts in their local areas, contributing to the AMDI Database, which provides vital evidence to combat the ocean plastic crisis on regional, national and international scales.
