How To Avoid Plastic Water Bottles?
Avoiding buying single-use plastic water bottles is as simple as carrying your own reusable alternative with you. Be sure to choose a socially-responsible and environmentally-friendly alternative, such as a reusable bottle made from stainless steel, glass, or safe aluminium.
To produce plastic bottles, we have to utilise oil. So, plastic bottles also draw on a finite natural resource. Along with this, the process of retrieving oil also has other environmental impacts associated with the drilling and production required to acquire oil, the raw material for producing plastic bottles. This feeds into the problem of rising temperatures and sea levels as well as further damaging natural environments and wildlife. Our ignorance and lack of understanding have seen us pollute our environment with plastic bottles. Instead of recycling, when we dispose of plastic bottles they regularly end up in landfill. When they get disposed of incorrectly many find their way into the ocean.
The Plastic Free Foundation’s mission is to build a global movement that dramatically reduces plastic use and improves recycling. Our vision is a world without plastic waste. The Plastic Free July campaign raises awareness of our growing plastic waste problem and supports behaviour change by helping people to avoid single-use (disposable) plastic. But it’s not just about changing our own behaviour, we want to scale our impact by sharing solutions and be part of a wider movement for change. Community groups, businesses, schools and other organisations can also participate in Plastic Free July.
It was started by Rebecca Prince-Ruiz (the founder of the Plastic Free Foundation) and a small team in local government in Western Australia, and is now one of the most influential environmental campaigns in the world. Millions of people across the globe take part every year, with many committing to reducing plastic pollution far beyond the month of July.T his year, “Plastic Free July” will aware about the problems of single use plastic.
