Plastic Free by the Sea

07/03/2024

Today is International Plastic Bag Free day - actually every day should be Plastic Bag Free Day! Please take this holiday as a great opportunity to swear off plastic bags - take your reusable bags to the grocery store. Single-Use plastic bags are infiltrating every inch of the planet and their microscopic particles are poisoning the bodies of every creature that calls it home.
(they've even been seen in the Mariana Trench, the world's deepest ocean trench!

this photo was taken by Rep. Pricey Harrison at the Olde Beaufort Farmers Market as we continue to give away reusable bags to encourage people to reduce single use plastic!
Rep. Pricey Harrison is from Greensboro and is a great representative as she works for so many good things. She will soon be filing bills to ban and . you can follow her on Facebook or Twitter.

Also, join me at my workshops at the Beaufort Train Depot May 8 OR 9 - 9:00am OR 6:00pm to discuss how our community can move forward to address this issue.

two more stewards of this important mission - reducing single use plastic. Lela Faye Rich and Beth Duff gave out 300 free bags at the Beaufort Farmers Market, a joint project of the Town of Beaufort and the Sierra Club’s Plastic Free by the Sea. Thank you!

I already had no desire to see the Barbie movie . . .

Life in Plastic, It's Not Fantastic! The Barbie movie reminds that the glamorous Barbieland mirrors a far-from-fantastic reality: our planet’s relentless reliance on plastic.
