Last week we focused on LITTER. This week I would like to highlight REDUCING.                                                           

For the first few weeks of the lockdown my council were only emptying the food waste and general rubbish bins.

This resulted in my  Plastic and Tins bin not being emptied for nearly 8 WEEKS! 

I have always made sure that I  recycle as much as possible but what a SHOCK I got when I looked at the bin.

I didn’t realise how much plastic I used. So now I’m trying my best to REDUCE the amount of plastic I use at home.

Can you think of way you could REDUCE WASTE in you home or at school?  Please feel free to share your ideas.
