6 WAYS TO REDUCE PLASTIC FROM YOUR LIFE

1. Carry a Water Bottle and coffee cup EVERYWHERE

An easy habit to get into and means you never need a plastic bottle of water or takeaway coffee cup ever again!

2. Bring Bags Every Time

Another great habit to get into. Make sure you always keep a few extra reusable bags in your car in case you forget.

3. Reduce Amount of Takeaway

Try to reduce how many times you get takeaway or better yet, eat in instead!

4. Say NO To Straws

Whenever you get a drink, make sure you ask for it without the straw. If they have paper straw options, choose that instead.

5. Choose Plastic Free When You Can

When at the supermarket, try to choose the options with the least amount of plastic. Like glass jars instead of plastic bottles.

6. Ditch plastic wrap

Invest in some good, air tight storage containers that are both microwave and freezer safe.

You can also get reusable wax-lined cloths that work the same way as glad wrap.
