Jun 2, 2016 - A rough clip showing the process of collecting beach stranded marine debris on the rough shores of sub Antarctic Macquarie Island. Macquarie island is an island with lots of marine life that has been impacted by marine debris. All of the animals that are living on Macquarie island are finding it very hard to live around all this disgusting and disgraceful amount of rubbish that is not only destroying them but destroying their environment that they have to live in! A rough clip showing the process of collecting beach stranded marine debris on the rough shores of sub Antarctic Macquarie Island.
