76% of Australians don't know that stormwater is the biggest source of plastic pollution for oceans

In 2019, we commissioned a third party researcher to survey 1,000 Australian adults. Part of the research found that 76 per cent of Aussies don’t know that stormwater is the biggest source of plastic pollution in the world’s oceans. With knowledge comes power to change so educating Australians on the health of their oceans is a key focus area for Ocean Protect.

To educate the community and stormwater industry, we also do a range of other activities and work. See the below list for more information about these activities and work.
