Infrastructure
The right infrastructure can help prevent littering. Find out more about how we’ve created ways to help people make the right decision when they dispose of their litter.
How can infrastructure help prevent marine debris?
Some of the marine debris we find on our coast is beach litter or litter from a nearby source (for example, event venues, playgrounds and shops). Sometimes, the lack of infrastructure can contribute to people littering and releasing rubbish into the environment.
It’s important not only to consider what infrastructure is needed, but exactly where it should be placed. In some cases it’s a good idea to conduct trials to figure out the best location and the amount or type of infrastructure that is needed to get a positive result.
