National Litter Index

The Keep Australia Beautiful National Litter Index is Australia’s only national, annual, quantitative measure of what litter occurs where and in what volume. Over 950 sites are visited twice per year to create an annual report on litter in each State and Territory that can be compared against the national average.

Branded Litter Research

An extension of the National Litter Index is the Branded Litter Study which identifies which brands occur in the litter stream and in what number.  The research was trialled and tested in 0607 and a benchmark year with public results was carried out in 0708.
