Plastic Free July® is a global movement that helps millions of people be part of the solution to plastic pollution – so we can have cleaner streets, oceans, and beautiful communities. Will you be part of Plastic Free July by choosing to refuse single-use plastics?
Plastic Free July® website offers resources and solutions and tips for alternatives to single use plastic.
Among the ideas, "Choose to refuse":
- plastic shopping bags - bring your own bag or use a box
- single use cups - bring your own reusable cup or dine in
- plastic straws - use a paper straw or a drinking glass
- avoid plastic wraps - stoire leftovers in reusable containers
