Single use plastic reduction summed up, 'must do better'. Grocer article shows what is really happening, 'jaw jaw not war' on waste management. How long can those in positions of influence keep looking at the problem and finding excuse after excuse for inaction? Challenge is not simple or easy but neither is it impossible with determination to make changes. One size does not fit all and when it comes to convenience meals refill options don't work, however there are alternatives which enable circular solutions and benefits over continual ditching of high carbon ovenable plastic. #ukplasticspact #readymeals #futuregenerations #compostablepackaging #grocermagazine #defra

Following our #PlasticFreeJuly post last week, we are sharing the insightful tips and tricks from Giki's latest newsletter. Thank you for sharing, Giki! ☕ "Only use a reusable coffee (or tea) cup at work, to cut plastic waste. Disposable cups are normally made from paper with a plastic lining making them very hard to recycle." 🍴 "Have (or ask for) reusables in kitchens and canteens, such as cutlery, cups and plates. And filtered water rather than bottled water, to avoid needing plastic water bottles." 🍶 "Reduce plastic in your office tea and coffee. This could be milk in glass bottles, no individually wrapped sugar, tea bags without plastic in them or coffee in plastic free containers." ♻ "Recycle all the plastic you can, from soft plastic bags, bottles, packaging or containers. Find out what can be recycled at work and where, then make sure it is well labelled for others." 🍎 "Avoid unnecessary plastic packaging from snacks and food by bringing your own in reusable containers. They're often plastic with an inner liner, meaning they can’t be recycled." 🚮 "Organise a litter pick or beach clean with your team in your local area. The most common items of litter often contain plastic such as cigarette butts, bottles and snack wrappers." 📽 "Arrange a lunchtime screening of an inspirational film, or have a lunch-and-learn about the planet. This increases awareness and helps to motivate people to take action." 🤔 "Ask your team to share ideas to cut plastic in their roles, this could be having plastic-free swag, or asking suppliers to use less plastic packaging, or just using their influence at work." 🌟 "Share your successes and inspire your colleagues to act too. This could be by sharing a Giki step you’ve taken, or just starting a conversation with others about climate change." #GikiZero #PlasticFreeJuly #CollectiveAction #PeopleAndPlanet
