Why Plastic Free Schools?

It is vital that we turn the tide on the unnecessary use of single-use plastics. A convenience that has come to define our lives, one that is now an expected sight at beaches, cities and parks across the world. But one that we should not and do not accept. 

Plastic Free Schools is our response to this throwaway society. The collective actions of pupils across the UK will create waves of positive pressure, pushing for environmental behaviour and policy change .  We have the ability to turn the tide on Marine Plastic Pollution, together!
