Rank and last month refer to the island ranking.
The ranking counts reports from our readers, checked by photo. It is not an official survey. Rubbish index: weighted reports over the last twelve months per 10,000 inhabitants (small 1, medium 3, large 8). A municipality is ranked from five reports, an island from 20. Cleared spots still count, because the rubbish was there.

How the litter map works
Anyone reporting litter taps on the map, uploads a photo and confirms the report via email. An image verification process filters out photos without litter and blurs out people and number plates. The email address does not appear anywhere.
Once the litter has been cleared, any reader can report this by uploading a new photo from the same location. The marker then turns green and remains visible for 90 days. Markers that have not been confirmed by anyone for six months disappear from the map.
