** Plastic Free Scotland Announcement **
After a lot of thought, we've decided to stop Plastic Free Scotland. This year has been hard for so many reasons, but even before that we struggled to get people interested in campaigning and volunteering with us.
It's just not sustainable anymore. So we hope you have a wonderful New Year when it comes, and we'll keep this PFS group open for now if people want to use it to speak to each other.

More than 1600 tonnes of single-use face coverings could spend "hundreds of years" in Scotland’s landfill sites if our habits do not change in the next four months, it has been warned. #plasticpollution

Plastic pollutes at every stage of its lifecycle from the resources needed to produce it to the end of life products that we see littering our environment. That’s why I’m having #MySayOnSingleUse. @ZeroWasteScot #Ad
If you would also like to see Scotland ban these environmentally harmful single-use items then please take part in the @ScotGov consultation. #Ad @ZeroWasteScot
consult.gov.scot/zero-waste-…
It’s open until 4th January and it’s important that as many people as possible tell the Scottish Government that we need action to tackle #plasticpollution in Scotland. #Ad @ZeroWasteScot
