“If we want to stem the tide of plastic pollution blighting our environment, giant firms like Amazon have to find ways of making deliveries in returnable and reusable packaging. And if they won’t – the government should make them.” theguardian.com/technology/201…

Brilliant idea! All about thinking outside of the box #ecoevents

Next time you need to jazz up a party, take a peek into your own garden for decorations! 🎉 As for us, we're definitely making rainbow confetti with our recycled wrappers. Thanks for the inspiration Our Good Brands!

We knew that our commitment would present huge challenges and we’re proud to be bringing our customers along on the #TooCoolForPlastic journey. Read about our latest trials, errors and successes here: independent.co.uk/life-style/ice…


So many microplastics this weekend in #Manly once you see, you can't unsee them 😭

We tweeted @Coles last year about their plastic collectables, and they didn't have a great response. After a year of already finding them in the ocean it's time to stop this! Come on @Coles step up! #plasticfreejuly

thanks for getting in touch. We know many of our customers love collectables and we have designed them together with our suppliers to be miniature replicas of some of the most popular products on our supermarket shelves. The idea behind Little Shop is that 1/4



Listening to The Calmer You podcast with @zannavandijk all about Eco Anxiety and feeling the fear and doing it anyway. Well worth a listen!


For #cleanupaustralia day we are off to @Surfrider harbour clean up, paddleboards and all! How are you cleaning up today?


👏👏 Incredible news @GlastoFest about time the big festivals got on board. #ecoevents

In an environmentally historic vote, the European Parliament has moved to ban single-use plastic products across Europe. This ban outlaws plastic bags, straws, plates, cups, drink stirrers and cotton swabs. #plasticpollutes ow.ly/88os30nL3KI

1/ I just watched the #Fyre documentary on Netflix, here are my thoughts, based on 12 years reviewing work of #eventprofs and in response to the many requests to share my opinion.

✔️ water bottle ✔️ coffee mug ✔️ bags ✔️ utensils ✔️ whatever YOU need to refuse single-use plastic Get ready - it’s almost that time again! Tomorrow is #PlasticFreeTuesday! A few minutes of preparation can prevent years of #plasticpollution - let’s do this! 💪🌊🌏

Why not get rid of your balloon arch or your balloon display at your event and do something more creative? You could do a floral arrangement instead! #ecoswaps #ecoeventprof

Call for balloon-release ban bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-e… via @BBCNews "The Marine Conservation Society has said that 53% more balloon-related litter has been found on our beaches this year than in 2015."

"The [strawless] lids use more plastic than a combination of the company’s current lids and plastic straws." Recyclable is not enough. Compostable cups are not enough. We need to stop "greening" single-use & address the problem. We need to get to reusable. theguardian.com/business/2018/…

Starbucks is banning straws – but is it really a big win for the environment?

The coffee giant has announced its phasing out straws. But are the new lids it’s introducing actually any better?
