Det nytter! En enorm nedgang i mengden plastposer i havet de siste årene. Bl.a. har en avgift i UK gitt 80% reduksjon av bruk av plastposer fra matbutikker! Men det er like mye plast generelt. Nå må vi takle resten. Vi vil forby heliumballonger på 17. mai https://t.co/BBLEt8WTbk

Decline in plastic bags on seabed shows tackling waste is working

The number of plastic bags found on the seabed has plummeted, suggesting efforts to combat plastic pollution are working. Government scientists compiled data on 25 years’ worth of plastic trawled from the bottom of the sea to examine litter trends in the waters surrounding the UK. While the findings have been heralded as evidence of successful policies to reduce plastic pollution, experts say the report shows that other items need to be dealt with as vigorously as plastic bags.
