Earthwatchers - RiverWatch: Plastic Pollution

Organised by Earthwatch

The vast majority of plastics that end up in the worlds oceans are carried there by rivers. But we have very little scientific data about plastic pollution on our rivers and lakes. This project helps plug that data gap.

Story

RiverWatch: Plastic Pollution is part of Earthwatchers - an innovative programme bringing together volunteers who take part in scientific research projects to help the environment. In this project, volunteers count and categorise the litter they find near a local waterway. This data helps to fill the gaps that currently exist around plastic pollution.

By supporting Earthwatchers you will be part of a scientific revolution - we are disrupting traditional scientific funding models by running a range of exciting science projects funded partially by the public. This means we don't have to just rely on research grants that are limited in time and scope, we can make sure our projects can delve deeper and respond to environmental issues as they arise.
