StopPlastics

March 22nd is #WorldWaterDay 💧 Plastic waste has filled our oceans & settled in our lakes, it ends up in drinking water & it kills and harms countless creatures. The only question is how are we going to change & what are we going to do to #stopplastics youtube.com/watch?v=31CdhL…

🗑️ Single-use items are not only made of plastic but most are wrapped in plastic packaging. Though there is pushback, there are multiple alternatives. We have no time to 'waste'. 5/4 (oops) Thanks to #StopPlastics volunteer Leslie K.for this 👏 Happy #EarthDay #refusesingleuse

🌎🌍🌏🚢🔥 Much single-use plastic waste is offloaded to poorer countries where it is regularly burned or abandoned, shortening inhabitant's lives & destroying their environment.This is just one aspect of environmental racism. 4/4

🍴Single-use plastics are unnecessary, wasteful & harmful to our health & the environment; they create waste, pollution, harm fish, plants, wildlife & the natural environment, leaching toxins into soil, water & air; poisoning, injuring & killing wildlife & their offspring.1/4

@RRFMcampbellprk Thanks 🙏 Hope you are back soon. Your market is an antidote to Single-use-itis.

The RRFM is POSTPONED until further notice. It is, of course, sad - but necessary as physical distancing is the safest thing we can do for ourselves and for each other. We miss you all dearly and look forward to seeing you when it is safe for us to re-open the RRFM market!
