The Department has not made an assessment of the impact of litter on wildlife.
We are aware of the general adverse impact litter can have on wildlife and we are tackling this through our Litter Strategy for England. The strategy sets out our aim to deliver a substantial reduction in litter and littering within a generation by focusing on education and awareness, improving enforcement and better cleaning and access to bins.
