National Litter Pollution Monitoring System Environ Conference January 2005

Overview of Presentation n Background to the National Litter Pollution Monitoring System; n The aim of the System; and n Litter Survey Results 2003.

Introduction National Litter Pollution Monitoring System (NLPMS) sets out to answer three questions: 1.How littered is the country at local and national level? 2.What are the main constituent elements of litter pollution? and 3.What are the main causes of litter pollution?

Background to the Monitoring System  Philosophy: ‘If you can’t measure a problem, then you can’t manage that problem’ (Is it getting better or worse?)  TES appointed as Litter Monitoring Body in 1999 (design and quality control)

EMS Approach n EMS=Environmental Management System; n Overall Aim of EMS = ENVIRONMENTAL IMPROVEMENT  Pro-active, Not Reactive n NOT to Penalise Poor Performance n NOT to Develop Ranking (League Table) n Continuous Improvement

Implementing the Litter Monitoring System n Set Up Phase n Benchmark Phase n Survey Phase

SetUp Phase - Implementation (Once Off) n Identify all locations of potentially polluting buildings and sites; n Assign to ‘Class’ and ‘Category’; and n Map Generators onto digital maps (using the Litter Monitoring GIS software).

GIS Module Data Entry Module

Benchmark Litter Quantification Survey Quantify the litter present. Statistics will show what are the components of litter pollution. Annual statistics may be used to observe trends in litter composition

Litter Pollution Survey Monitoring tool to determine extent and severity of litter pollution. Track changes in pollution levels arising from altered litter management practices. Identifies litter blackspots.

Litter Surveys Litter Quantification Survey –types /origin Litter Pollution Survey –extent /severity

National Litter Composition 2003

Comparison of National Litter Composition

Comparison of Litter Pollution Indices

Findings  4.4% of areas were litter free;  50% of areas were slightly littered, an improvement of 7%;  The percentage of areas of moderately and significantly has decreased by 6%; and  The percentage of grossly polluted areas has remained unchanged at 2%.

Causative Factors of Litter Pollution

Plastic Bags as a Percentage of National Litter Composition

To Summarise: The National Litter Pollution Monitoring System: Is proving a useful tool for monitoring the composition, severity and causes of litter pollution; Improvement has been experienced in relation to the degree of litter pollution nationally; and Progress in implementation.
