Plastic Free July

Plastic Free July is a global campaign, the idea being that everyone removes plastic from their day-to-day, entirely. This may be impractical for many, but the idea should spotlight our overreliance.
Here are two things we can concentrate our efforts on:
- Switching away from single-use plastic
Here's a feature from cleansailors.com and top tips on switching out single-use from our day-to-day, with lots of facts embedded.
- No ifs. No butts
We aren't in the business of demonising any habit or routine BUT we like to make sure we've got the full picture...! Cigarettes butts are highly toxic, contain plastic, and more often than not, are dumped on the roadside or into waterways, including the sea.
Here's why they need to be thrown away properly.
