Create Change

Carry a reusable water bottle and coffee cup whenever you can.
Say no to plastic straws, plates and cutlery, carry your own reusable ones.

When you can’t source reusable products, make sure you recycle.
Collect your soft plastics and dispose of them at your local supermarket ‘soft plastics’ recycling bin

Avoid bottled water, which is always in plastic, especially in Australia, where our water is safe to drink out of the tap in most areas - you’ll also save money at the same time.

Always use a bin for cigarette butts, paper, plastics wrappers or anything you dispose of, it should go in the bin.
Always place all hard plastics into a recycling bin.

Ditch the plastic wrap! Foil is recyclable, or use a lunchbox. Use plastic free tea bags or loose leaf tea. Disposing of regular teabags ultimately leads to microplastics entering our waterways.

Give up the gum, it is made of rubber (hence plastic). While you’re at it, choose not to purchase any items encased in plastic.
