Untrashing #Djulpan: A @SeaShepherd_Aus film and #Marine #Debris #Campaign [#geekgirl]

Untrashing Djulpan – A Sea Shepherd Film “ÅŠilmurru bukmak djäka wäŋawu – All of us together, looking after country.

In 2018, Sea Shepherd joined forces with the Dhimurru indigenous rangers of North-East Arnhem Land, Northern Territory for a remote marine debris clean-up mission.

Djulpan is a remote beach, far from any town or city. It is a culturally significant place for the Yolngu people and an important nesting ground for turtles.

However, for the past decade, the Dhimurru rangers have been faced with an increasing tide of plastic pollution arriving on their coastline.

Together, the team’s plan was to remove as much plastic from the beach as possible but what they uncovered was the sad reality of plastic pollution today.

‘Untrashing Djulpan’ tells their story.

Premiering September 2019.
