Authors:	Jóźwiak Tomasz
Abstract:	This short communication presents results obtained within the framework of the pan-European project Coastwatch Europe which is conducted under the auspices of the European Parliament in Brussels (DG XI). The aim of this project is to monitor the amount of debris and groups of plants and animals on the sea coast. The idea of this project was established in Ireland in 1987 and coordinated by Trinity College, Dublin. The first results obtained in autumn 1987 in Ireland were so interesting that the European Commission for the Natural Environment provided funding to expand the project to include other European countries. The project was awarded the right to use the Environment for European logo and the DG XI of the European Parliament was named the official patron.
