  2. Use Less Plastic

  3. At the rate we’re going, the growing impact of plastic pollution on our oceans will be one of the big disaster stories of this century. • Try to figure out ways you can use less plastic, especially plastic storage bags. • This type of plastic is easy for wildlife to swallow and eventually causes death. • Plastic factories also deliver much of the pollution that is not bio-degradable.

  4. Simply say no to bottled water! • It is convenient to drink bottled water, but the environmental impact of bottled water plastic is huge! • Over 1.5 billion tons of plastic water bottles end up in U.S. landfills each year. • It takes over 300 years for plastic to degrade.

  5. Up to 40 percent of all bottled waters are merely re-processed tap water. • A much healthier and less expensive solution to bottled water is to invest in refillable glass water bottles or stainless steel water bottles and fill them with filtered drinking water.
