Litter is a threat to the NSW marine estate, and education plays a vital role in reducing littering.

Did you know that by 2050 it is projected that the weight of plastic in the ocean will outweigh fish.

The new Don't be a Tosser! website is the place to learn about how rubbish ends up in our waterways and ocean, its impact, and what you can do to make a difference.

There are interactive tools to show how litter impacts marine life, the environment, and our health; as well as up-to-date news about the NSW litter campaign, including the new marine litter campaign.

You can take a quiz to see how much plastic you are consuming, understand your litter score card, or take a pledge to change your littering habits.

Start exploring at the new Don't be a Tosser! website.

The Don’t be a Tosser! campaign is partially funded by the NSW Marine Estate Management Strategy.
