Marlisco > raising awareness around plastic pollution at sea

This evening's first event of the Plastics Week brought up lots of the latest research into plastics pollution:
Futures Forum: Plastics Week in Sidmouth > Presentations and Q&As on marine pollution from Plymouth University > Tues 8th May

And one of the most important pieces of research looking at our behaviours has been the awareness raising project Marlisco:

Marine environments are central to human well-being, but they are also extensively threatened by our activities. MARLISCO seeks to raise awareness of both the problems and the solutions to a key issue threatening marine habitats worldwide - the accumulation of marine litter.

One of the highlights of the research was a competition to put together a video about the issues:
