Join AUSMAP and Seabin Foundation to explore the link between synthetic turf, microplastic pollution, and ocean health, and how communities can respond. The event will start with an AUSMAP microplastic sample collection/beach clean-up at Manly Cove, which is AUSMAP's longest-running microplastic data set! Then we will listen to the 'Turf Talk' from AUSMAP and Seabin Foundation to give an overview of the issue and what we have been finding. Then the floor will be opened up to our expert panel for questions before diving into solutions and how you can help! This event offers evidence-based insights into synthetic turf, ensuring the community leaves informed, engaged, and ready to advocate for sustainable alternatives.
