Some years ago Ian Hutton from Lord Howe Island spoke at a COG meeting, showing examples of the effect of plastic waste on the seabirds breeding on the island.
Jen Lavers has been researching the issue for years, and this article appeared on the ABC site this morning:
"our new record holder is 778 pieces of plastic in an 80-day-old seabird chick, in one of the most pristine
corners of our planet."
