Something to think about...

I live near a cricket ground and last week the local roads were closed for a day of cricket. The road closures were clearly organised with the council, however someone there forgot to notice that it was also recycling day! So the trucks were not allowed through!!! 

The next day many of the streets were littered with plastic that had escaped in the wind :( I saw a friend and they explained what had happened and said that they hoped the council will come by soon other wise they would be swamped by all the rubbish. So, in only 8 days there is a problem, it looked like this:

In 14 days there would be serious health issues and in a month well, we can't even imagine what it would look like in a month!
Clearly, we all need to buy less plastic.
