18.01.2022 The light rain stopped long enough to allow Mullaloo Scouts and Enactus ECU to team up again. We successfully plant 440 seedlings into Dunes 3 & 4, followed by a beach walk to collect rubbish. We finished the morning with a warm homemade tomato soup. Many thanks to everyone, including the seedlings and help by the Joondalup Natural Areas team.... Well done And then the rains came back to finish the day.

11.01.2022 Mark is back with us to give you a brief overview on all the different initiatives the Mullaloo Beach Community Group Inc undertake to take care of our coastal environment. We call it our Aeolian Strategy

10.01.2022 Such a fabulous way to celebrate AUSMAP's 1st birthday with our #PlasticFreeJuly Community in collaboration with #OperationStraw and #ManlyDiveCentre for #DiveA...gainstDebis. There was a great turn out for a mid winters day and we collected over 30kg of macro debris below the water line, most of which was single-use plastic. There was sadly much microplastic also found within the samples we collected, much of which were nurdles (What is a Nurdle? https://www.epa.vic.gov.au///plastic-resin-pellets-nurdles). Thank you to all who came and helped with all the different organisations, your help, enthusiasm and ability to spread the knowledge to help put an end to marine and plastic pollution. All the data has been reported to Macquarie University, Project AWARE and Tangora Blue. If you'd like to get involved or continue the support on campaigning against plastic pollution please follow AUSMAP on social media where our events are posted. @ Manly, New South Wales, Australia
