You may have heard of Plastic Free July – a challenge that aims to reduce personal use of plastic (particularly single-use disposable plastic) for the month of July … and beyond!
Did you know there are over 1 million people in over 130 countries taking part in Plastic Free July!?
So join in and take the challenge. It’s simple. Choose to refuse single-use plastic. Try to use an alternative instead.
Use reusable bags instead of plastic single-use shopping bags, use a box, or perhaps using a Boomerang Bag instead.
