The Nautilus Project’s Wish List for the 2019 upcoming elections

All points on Climate Coalition petition – to urgently address Gibraltar’s Carbon responsibilities in order to meet its declared Climate Emergency Pledge. Action on Pollution / Waste / Energy / Transport & Development.

No biodegradable/compostable plant derived plastic – scientific evidence does not support the sustainability of these products to date.

An end to all unnecessary single use plastic – complete transition to sustainable products.

Sustainable resurfacing of the beach parks – the current rubber material breaks down and ends up in the sea.

Revision of Duty on sustainable goods – helping local businesses to make an easier switch to eco-friendly products.

Recycling bins placed along Main Street, all side streets and backstreets – encouraging people to make use of them and not placing their rubbish in the normal bins available which end up in landfill.

Re-Introduction of sea grasses – local carbon sequestration initiative plus aiding of sea horses habitat.

Protection of Atlantic Blue Fin Tuna – within the nature protection act - only catch, tag and release.

Government backed Reverse Vending Scheme – encouraging the reduction of general waste.

Boat Shuttle Service – available from the North Mole to all the beaches avoiding traffic congestion and parking issues.

Better Enforcement of the nature protection act at sea

Deadline for Sewage Treatment Plant – Gibraltar needs this urgently.
