Hey again. There’s a campaign that’s been growing yearly, which started in Australia, to make July Plastic-Free. https://www.plasticfreejuly.org/. Something we all should aim for when possible. We are talking mostly about single-use plastic here, especially, as some plastic is very necessary. For instance – IVs for COVID patients.

But do we need plastic bags to carry groceries from the supermarket home or to our car – or can we come up with something else. Can we protest about plastic packaging? Yes.

GNDC is working with an anti–plastic activist out in Nevada (her name is Den) on Plastic-Free July. Den has created a wonderful daily challenge for July on plastic, and shared it with us.

Den says feel free to share this!
