Me Eco Warrior

My objective for Lent this year is to become more aware of plastic and to find ways of avoiding single-use plastic.  It's not easy.  The supermarkets are full of the stuff.  This morning I watched a screening of Plastic Ocean to get some ideas.  The film showed some very depressing photos of plastic filling up the oceans and being eaten by birds and fish.  And, of course, as we're part of the food chain, it gets eaten by us too.

It's hard to know what one individual can do, apart from recycling and picking up rubbish.  But I've decided to buy a water bottle and fill it with tap water, instead of buying bottled water.  A tiny step in the right direction.
