Marine litter pollution from nautical tourism in the Adriatic sea
The aim of this paper is to analyse the impact of marine litter from the nautical tourism on the marine environment. Marine litter is a global problem and it has multiple impacts on environment, human health and human activities. In Europe, one of the main economic drivers could be nautical tourism, especially in the Adriatic Sea. Nautical tourism and other marine based activities produce large quantity of waste by cruisers, yachts and small boats. In the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea solid waste loads from cruisers are relatively high (9 900 984 000 kg in year of 2013) and it represents potential threat to the marine environment. In order to prevent marine litter pollution, it is extremely important to set up the strategy, but also to educate local population in order to raise awareness of the marine environment protection. With good economy approach and policy there is quite good chance for achieving the EU objective of Good Environmental Status by 2020 (Marine Directive, 2008).
