To create a clean sea, systems such as the fishing gear management record system and the lost fishing gear reporting system have been newly established, and facilities to block the inflow of waste from land into the ocean have also been expanded. The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries announced on the 6th that it has established a revised plan for the "First Basic Plan for the Management of Marine Waste and Marine Polluted Sediments (2021-2030)" through comprehensive and full-cycle management of marine waste and marine polluted sediments to create a clean marine environment. From 2018 to 2024, over a period of seven years, it was found that the amount of marine waste generated each year showed significant variability. From 86,000 tons in 2019 to 184,000 tons in 2023, there was a large difference.
