Pollution Monster Competition

Pollution Monster Competition

Pollution is one of the biggest threats to the world's oceans. Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste enter the sea.

In our Great Barrier Reef issue, we asked our readers to draw a picture of what "a pollution monster" would look like. Thank you to everyone who sent us their letters, ideas and designs. Below are some of your best monstrous creations!

The Pollution King by Eva, age 7, Pewsey


Pollution Monster by Ignacio, Age 7, Sevenoaks  


Two-Headed Plastic Vomiter by Ameya, age 8, Brittany, France

I have created the polluting two headed plastic vomiter monster. If we work together, I am sure we can fight these horrid creatures and free the world from sea pollution. I live near the sea in France and I wish we can all keep the water clean.


Oily, aka the Dark Menace by Catelyn, age 10, Chart Lane

 Middle Eastern Oil Spill Pollution by Stuart, age 10, Newport-on-Tay

 


 Pollution Monster by Elle, age 8, Ireland

It's a pollution monster fish which shows some of the many threats to the ocean environment: plastic, toxic waste, paint cans, household chemicals, nets, etc.


Pollution Monster by Sofia, age 6, Leeds

This is my pollution monster. It poops plastic bottles, bags and cans. It also smokes like a chimney.

by Eco Kids Planet September 09, 2026

You've been designing brilliant new contenders for the Astonishing Amazon Animal Showdown – piranhas with jaws that regrow in whole quarters, a hoatzin that ferments its dinner in a throat pouch, a tailless whip scorpion that senses danger through its legs, and a jaguar with one of the most powerful bites of any mammal. Thank you to every reader who did the research and made the case for their champion.
