No.

Plastic.
What you can do to make a difference.

This practical book by the founder of the #2minutesolution focuses on small actions that individuals can take in just 2 minutes. Each action is simple to do and takes very little time. But if we do one action each day, then that adds up to real impact over a period of time.
Here are some of the actions. (The book gives the background to each action and why it helps reduce plastic.)
Cut it out.
Add up the amount of packaging you’ll save from going to landfill (or the ocean) after a year.
Surprised?
Do it.
(Man-made fibres shed small microfibres when we wash them. These are not removed by water processing and get into rivers and oceans. They are being found in water all over the planet, and in living animals. When we put clothes in a Guppy Bag, it filters out microfibres.)
6 Check your bathroom cabinet. Look for products you still have that contain microbeads listed in their ingredients (Check on the internet what components to look for). If you find a product that contains microbeads, stop using it immediately.
Suggest other ways of celebrating. (This includes an element of Persuasion)
