#DidYouKnow every toothbrush that’s been produced since the 1930s still exists on the planet according to @NatGeo.
Toothbrushses made from plastic & nylon (#fossilfuels) take hundreds of years to break down, whereas a bamboo handle only takes 6 months! ow.ly/8UGz50xtPIO

Bags don’t exist in 60 countries. In the UK, let’s show some leadership and BAN THE BAG."

We all know plastic is a problem right?
So why have supermarkets put more plastic on their shelves than ever before?

With UK supermarkets selling more than 1 billion #plastic water bottles in 2018, refill stations would be a drop in the ocean in helping to ease the plastic deluge.. but an important step in the right direction #turnofftheplastictap independent.co.uk/news/uk/ho…

There are so many tweeks that we can make to cut #plastic from our homes. Buying a bar of soap instead of a bottle is an easy way to start #plasticfree

Back in 2015, @Selfridges BANNED plastic water bottles in food halls and restaurants, saving 400,000 single-use bottles A YEAR 👏 👏 buff.ly/2OBm6bj
Now, nearly 5 years later, it's time for MORE retailers to follow. We know it CAN be done! Who's next? 🤔#FridayMotivation

One way to protect our oceans, rivers & wildlife is by reducing plastic pollution. Refuse avoidable plastic, refill when you can & (as a last resort) recycle.

We love this from @TreeHugger! Instead of wasting your pennies on new #singleuseplastic Halloween decorations, #REUSE plastic waste to make scary trimmings that won't have a frightening impact on the planet 🎃 treehugger.com/green-home/tu…

#Pointlessplastic excesses of Christmas bring 1sec of fun but a lifetime of destruction for the natural world.
@jlandpartners will stop:
✨Glitter = microplastics
🐸Toys in crackers = landfill
🎁Plastic wrap on cards = 8 tonnes of plastic yearly

“Don’t waste electricity, don’t waste paper, don’t waste food. Live the way you want to live but just don’t waste. Look after the natural world, and the animals in it, and the plants in it too. This is their planet as well as ours. Don’t waste them.”

An estimated 2,000 tonnes of plastic waste will be generated this year in the UK by throwaway Halloween clothing. Before buying new costumes, consider secondhand sources: check charity shops, borrow or swap outgrown costumes with friends and neighbors! 👻 theguardian.com/lifeandstyle…
