The @mcs_uk British Beach Clean results are out! 🌎🌿
A massive 15,000 volunteers (double from last year) came along across the U.K. over the weekend in September to clean up 👏🏻 .It’s so interesting to see what the main polluters are and we should use this to target our bad habits! 🌿 I am shocked that the amount of litter in Scotland has gone up by 30% but luckily so has the number of volunteers by 80% Come of Scotland we must do better! 🏴 Check out all their stats from their recent post! 🌿 #mcs #passonplastic #drowninginplastic #plasticfree #beachclean #britishbeachclean #litterpick #makelitterpickingcool #2minutebeachclean #5minutebeachclean #plasticpollution #lesswastewarriors thelittlelitterpickersWell done Laura 💚😁 Who can resist saving the planet with a reusable coffee cup for just £1 🌿☕️Thank you @starbucks for using a whole display to promote sustainability! 👏🏻🏴
This is why people cannot be trusted with disposable items. What a waste of a business ‘trying’ to do better offering a ‘green’ cup. First of all these ‘compostable’ cups are not doing what they are cracked up to do. They are not compostable in a bin or in your home systems, they need to be industrially composted which is just not available right now, especially at the scale needed. It is also definitely not going to breakdown on a pavement. Yes they are avoiding the old plastic-lined paper ones, but it’s honestly just creating a new problem. This is why we have REUSABLE cups. Take it, get a discount, enjoy your drink, wash it out, then REPEAT. No waste. No mess. No linear production. This is circular. This is better. And then there’s just the person that chucked this at the side of the road. Come on. Rage. This week needs to end and it’s Tuesday.
