World Plastic Bag Free Day
Let's repair the environment by eliminating plastic
Environmental pollution is caused by tonnes of plastic bags, which float undisturbed between the seabed and the surface, trapping or being accidentally ingested by fish, turtles and many other aquatic species. The creation of an annual global day is intended to encourage people to use reusable bags instead of disposable plastic bags.
The oceans, which absorb almost a third of the carbon dioxide we produce, are increasingly in crisis.
More than 13 million tonnes of plastic bottles, masks, gloves, detergent bottles and disposable bags pollute them every year.
According to data from the MCS Association, almost two million pieces of microplastics per square metre lurk on the seabed.
