A welcome piece of recent news for this neck of the woods was the nding from the annual litter survey carried out by the Marine Conservation Society that the number of plastics bags washed up on UK beaches has fallen by 80% since a mandatory checkout fee was imposed on single-use carrier bags. Given the impact of what is in e ect a tax on plastic, and given the fact that only 10% of plastic is recyclable, we are looking to explore further measures which could be taken to reduce further our use (and abuse) of plastic. A future diary date is the 21st October, venue TBC, when Lucie Mann will be leading a session on this subject.
