Reducing Our Plastic Waste
In today’s world, plastic is almost unavoidable. It is used in the production of everything — food and drink packaging, toiletries, clothing, furniture, computers… the list is endless. It is designed to be durable, and can take anywhere from a few decades to millions of years to degrade in landfill.
Plastic is now a major problem
Globally, it is estimated that approximately 8 million metric tonnes of plastic find their way into the oceans each year — the equivalent of dumping a garbage truck full of plastic into the ocean every minute — it can then be carried thousands of kilometres in the ocean’s currents.
