Hughesa a British Antarctic Survey, Natural Environment Research Council, High Cross, Madingley Road, Cambridge CB3 0ET, UK b Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources, 181 Macquarie Street, Hobart 7000, Tasmania, Australia ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Handling Editor: Adrian Covaci We report on three decades of repeat surveys of beached marine debris at two locations in the Scotia Sea, in the Keywords: Southwest Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean. Between October 1989 and March 2019 10,112 items of Marine debris beached debris were recovered from Main Bay, Bird Island, South Georgia in the northern Scotia Sea. The total Plastic mass of items (data from 1996 onwards) was 101 kg. Plastic was the most commonly recovered item (97.5% by Scotia Sea number; 89% by mass) with the remainder made up of fabric, glass, metal, paper and rubber. Mean mass per − − Antarctic item was 0.01 kg and the rate of accumulation was 100 items km 1 month 1. Analyses showed an increase in South Georgia the number of debris items recovered (5.7 per year) but a decline in mean mass per item, suggesting a trend South Orkney towards more, smaller items of debris at Bird Island. At Signy Island, South Orkney Islands, located in the southern Scotia Sea and within the Antarctic Treaty area, debris items were collected from three beaches, during the austral summer only, between 1991 and 2019.

We look forward to our continued collaboration with member countries in achieving Blue Growth through policies and implementation of development programmes in fisheries and aquaculture.” Árni M. Mathiesen, Assistant Director-General, FAO Fisheries and Aquaculture Department The Blue Growth Initiative Fisheries and aquaculture support the livelihoods of millions of people around the world in rural and coastal communities, and often play a key role in a society’s culture and identity. As these communities know well, fish is also a healthy and nutritious food, with the potential to feed our growing planet. But as the population grows, the demand for fish increases, and our natural resources are increasingly under pressure, sustainable management and development is crucial to preserving these resources for future generations. Like the Green Economy principles that preceded it, FAO’s Blue Growth Initiative emphasizes the three pillars of sustainable development– economic, environmental and social – so that fisheries and aquaculture contribute to the 2030 Agenda Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
