We’re installing drain buddies in litter hotspots that flow to the Reef in Rockhampton, Yeppoon and Gladstone.
These devices are monitored and community-based behaviour change campaigns are put in place to help prevent littering. This project has prevented 27,191 pieces of litter and 721kg of pollutants (including 13,828 cigarette butts) from entering the Great Barrier Reef so far.
