Plastic Bag Free Day

International Plastic Bag Free Day is an annual event that advocates for the reduction and eventual elimination of single-use plastic bags. Plastic bags are one of the most common pollutants, often ending up in oceans and waterways where they pose a threat to marine life and ecosystems. The day promotes the use of reusable bags, cloth bags, and other sustainable alternatives, and it encourages people to take action in their communities to reduce plastic waste.

Cost-neutral:

Spread awareness about plastic bag free day and encourage tenants to use reusable bags.

Mid-Range:

Idea from The Metro Building;

We created posters detailing the environmental impact of plastic bags and purchased reusable grocery bags for tenants to take home (£26.99) LINK

Additionally, tote bags are available for purchase (£24.99) LINK

Top-Tier:

If you have the space, you could organise a workshop where tenants can decorate these bags to make them more personalised.
