Marine litter is a growing global problem and a challenge in Norwegian waters. Every year 36,000 tons of garbage are dumped in the ocean outside Norway. Both fish and birds die because of this waste. Last year 10,000 volunteers cleaned 300 km of beach, and removed 116 tons of plastic and other trash from the coast.
