Discover how human activity shapes our waterways and marine environments at this engaging Urban and Marine Conservation event.
As part of the Wetlands and Wildlife series, this experience will delve into the historical and ecological significance of our waterways, providing insights into the ways urban development, pollution, and conservation efforts intersect.
Litter remains a major threat to our creeks and marine habitats. To help tackle this issue, we’ll conduct a Street, Creek, and Synthetic Turf Clean-up and Litter Audit, gathering essential data on pollution sources and their impacts. By working together, we can contribute to ongoing conservation efforts, identify intervention strategies, and promote sustainable practices to protect our local ecosystems.
In addition to the clean-up, this event includes an interactive discussion on how urbanisation affects waterways, featuring expert insights into the importance of conservation and ways we can mitigate human impact.
Join us for this hands-on, informative, and community-driven event that empowers participants to take meaningful action in protecting and restoring our waterways and marine environments.
This is a family-friendly event supported by Melbourne Water.
