Doing things together

TOGETHER WE CAN
make a DIFFERENCE

We can all help reduce plastic use by following a more sustainable lifestyle.
What can you do?

• Separate and recycle your waste, following the local guidelines for your area.
• When you shop, look at the packaging before you choose a product: try and avoid or at least limit single-use plastics!
• Always take reusable shopping bags (net, cotton or paper) with you.
• Drink water from glass bottles or choose tap water, if safe to drink. You could also install a water purifier. When you’re out and about, a refillable flask is a must!
• To store food, choose washable glass containers instead of plastic bags or film.

• Choose wooden toys and encourage your children to reuse them, explaining how important it is: they’re never too young to learn about the environment!
• What about the bathroom? Get rid of disposable razors, plastic cotton buds and toothbrushes. Bamboo toothbrushes are a great option!
• When you hang out your washing, use wooden pegs.
