Plastic litter is fast becoming the scourge of the Island's beautiful beaches.
A new survey by the Marine Conservation Society has found plastic littering is at it highest level since records began, with plastic now accounting for 58 per cent of all debris found on United Kingdom beaches.
Dru Leoidsson is a volunteer for the society and carried out surveys on Castletown and Derbyhaven beaches.
He says the trend is clear to see here:
Prisoner accused of throwing boiling water over fellow inmate
Plans for 86-home development on former Buchan School site go on display
'Illegal and inconsiderate parking' hampering refuse collection in Onchan
Man accused in Cinder Path attack walks free
