9A decadeof dirtinessIn the last ten years there’s been a huge hike in the amount oflitter found on UK beaches – it’s gone up over 20%.Our graph clearly shows the ten year trend.Sadly most of the litter we find on beaches can be traced back to the general public.But there is good news – compared to other sources of litter – the percentage ofpublic litter has gone down over the last two years. However the volume hasincreased – so we’re finding more items in every kilometre cleaned.2,500PUBLICPLASTIC PIECESNON SOURCEDFISHING LITTERSEWAGE RELATED DEBRISSHIPPING LITTERFLY TIPPEDWe love our plastic stuff – it’s tough, comes in all different shapesand sizes and when it’s not needed anymore we just chuck it away.What’s not to like? Trouble is it gets smaller and smaller and endsup on our beaches and the more we love plastic – the more wefind. We need to change our behaviour – find out how overleaf.Fishing litter is a regular find on our beaches. Anglers love the coast and althoughsome deliberately ditch line and hooks, most will accidentally lose their kit or leaveit behind. Thanks to our ‘Hang on to your Tackle’ campaign there’s beenan increased awareness of the need to dispose of fishing litter safely.Our beaches are a magnet for fly-tipping – in fact fly tipped items haveincreased since 2013. These items are generally pretty big stuff, sonot only dangerous to beach visitors but a real eyesore.2,5002,0002,0001,5001,5001,0001,000500500 20052006 2007 2008 20092010 2011 2012 2013 2014
