Beach cleanup tour
van Stichting De Noordzee

Marien zwerfafval (zwerfafval in zee) en plastic vervuiling zijn een wereldwijd groeiend milieuprobleem. Jaarlijks stroomt er ongeveer 8 miljoen ton plastic in onze oceanen.

Dit is schadelijk voor de oceanen en de vele diersoorten die erin leven. Zeezoogdieren, vogels en vissen zien het afval, zoals stukjes plastic, dopjes of plastic zakjes, aan voor voedsel. Ze raken verstrikt in afgedankte of verloren netten, visdraad en touwen.

Plastic deeltjes zijn inmiddels in 660 in zee levende soorten aangetroffen. Mogelijke effecten op de menselijke gezondheid worden onderzocht.
