More than 80% of the trash we find on our beaches is bought for ‘convenience’ and considered ‘disposable.’

It’s what happens when…

we’re thirsty Vita is the No. 1 Brand on our Beach! That’s in terms of numbers of bottles we pick up our cleanups!
we’re hungry These tools are only used once. For how long? 5 minutes? 10 minutes?
we’re thirsty So much trash for one small drink – this is usual for our cleanups
we’re hungry And so are the fish – they eat the plastic and polystyrene
We can’t get the drink in us without the aid of a plastic tube And we think we’re so smart – we easily find 200+ straws on our cleanups

Do we like to use plastic and polystyrene to eat and drink? Surely we can eliminate it from our lives?

It’s not convenient, because it’s not disposable. The posts on this page will show you how changing your habits to cut down the waste you produce can be fun and satisfying. It’s good for our beaches and good for our health – you may even find it makes you new friends, impresses a prospective boss, saves you money and helps you sleep at night!
