Can you go plastic-free for 31 days? More than 250 million people in 177 countries have taken part in Plastic Free July. From 1 to 31 July, people around the world give up single-use plastics and develop habits that will last them into the future. The organisation provides resources and ideas to help you reduce single-use plastic waste wherever you are.
We can all reduce our plastic consumption if we try. Whether you decide to take it slow, one change at a time, or you decide to go completely 'cold turkey', you can make a difference. Here are a few ways individuals can reduce their waste – whether for a single month, or beyond.
And remember, if you don't have the ability or the time to eliminate plastic from your life completely, don't worry! The plastic problem will be solved by lots of people doing small things, not a few people doing bit things.
Your Plastic Free July pledge doesn't have to be confined to your home - why not take it to work and try to make a broader difference? Own a business and want to give Plastic Free July a go, not just as home but at work as well? Read below for a few tips on how to make it work.
