The Zero Litter to the Bay by 2030 initiative is now underway following its January 6th media launch.
The Queensland State Government recently announced that applications for $35 million in funding under the “Zero Litter to the Bay” policy are now open – with applications closing 31st March. Up to $9.5 million is available for Brisbane, Redlands and Moreton Bay Councils and up to $2 million for Ipswich, Logan and Sunshine Coast Councils – for a range of initiatives to better protect Moreton Bay.
At the media announcement, Ocean Protect’s Dan Rhodes spoke alongside Minister Andrew Powell about the policy, also show-casing Ocean Protect’s OceanGuard – a highly innovative gully pit insert technology that is easily integrated into existing and new gully pits, and made with approximately 90% plastic waste.
