Source Reduction
Determine what items are being found and where they are coming from, then implement a plan to stop them at the source
What is a Source Reduction Plan?
With baseline clean-up data, you can identify common debris and its sources. This empowers communities to collaborate on strategies to prevent waste from entering the environment—known as a Source Reduction Plan (SRP).
Below you can see examples of Source Reduction Plans being implemented, so you can learn from what worked and what didn’t. These plans range from Tangaroa Blue or ReefClean campaigns, to small community SRPs.
If you want to create your own Source Reduction Plan, we’ve created a form that provides a framework for you to work through. We are happy to provide advice where we can and signpost to partners who may be able to help you – get in touch.
