Description
Company of Makers have teamed up with Just One Ocean to conduct a microplastic survey on Hayling Island beach. So if you’re interested in learning more about microplastics in our marine environment then read on…..
The Big Microplastic survey is a collaborative citizen science project being undertaken by UK charity, Just One Ocean and the University of Portsmouth. The project began in July 2018 and numerous individuals and organisations from around the world have joined the programme.
This is not a project that it is time dependent. It is ongoing, with data gathered next year, or even in ten years, contributing to our scientific knowledge. So it doesn’t matter if you can’t do a survey because of the snow; it can wait until the snow clears.
This project is all about collecting data that we can use. The more we get the better, so please feel free to do as many surveys as you want, whenever you want.
