As Britain’s Ocean City we are only too aware of the effects of plastic pollution and want to do all we can to reduce the amount of waste and the devastating effect it can have on our environment. A starting point for this is looking at the quick wins of reducing our reliance on single-use plastics like straws, disposable cups and plastic cutlery.
Campaigners in Plymouth are celebrating as the city has been awarded Plastic Free Community status in recognition of the hard work of partners across the city to reduce single use plastics and tackle plastic pollution.
This is why we are asking Armed Forces Day attendees to help reduce single-use plastics by bringing your own refillable bottles, and get your water from the filling station by the War Memorial on Plymouth Hoe.
