Plastic is versatile, cheap and long-lasting. It’s also the cause of an environmental crisis the world over. Plastic waste is polluting our rivers and seas, leaching into soils and creating hazards for people and wildlife alike. It’s a problem that needs addressing globally, and right here in the UK.
In this episode of the Carbon Copy Podcast, released ahead of this year’s “Planet Vs Plastics” themed Earth Day, we meet people working at a local level with their communities to tackle unnecessary single-use plastics. We hear from Roberta, who leads Plastic Free Sleaford, about the steps she and others in her town are taking to address this issue. We also learn about the bigger picture from Surfers Against Sewage’s Senior Communities Manager, who helps people in places around the UK take action where they live.
Listen to Bottle By Bottle now, to learn how small changes are creating big impact – in Sleaford and across the country.
