Ways to Help

Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority's story of Help the Reef

Everyone can play a role in reducing the impacts of climate change on the Great Barrier Reef. The first step is to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases you produce at home, in your business or your travels. There are many strategies that can minimise your contribution to climate change.

Secondly, you can help to ensure that the Great Barrier Reef is healthy. Individuals should remember that what goes down the drain will end up out at sea. People living along the coastline of the Reef should remember to wash their car on the lawn and keep litter out of drains. When fishing on the Reef, take only what you need to, within allowable limits and locations.
