The Marine Conservation Society has said more than 8,000 bottles were picked up during its Great British Beach Clean Up in September, up 43% on 2014.

"It's been proven to work in countries already," said Lauren Eyles, Beachwatch officer at the Marine Conservation Society, "it will change peoples behavior because it provides the financial incentive".
