It takes 450 years for a plastic bottle to fully biodegrade, and there are around 12.7 million tons of plastic entering the ocean each year. At our current pace, in the year 2050 there could be more plastic in the oceans than fish, by weight. These are alarming figures, but plastic pollution is an environmental crisis with a solution we can all contribute to. How to Give Up Plastic is a straightforward guide to eliminating plastic from your life. Going room by room through your home and workplace, Greenpeace activist Will McCallum teaches you how to spot disposable plastic items and find plastic-free, sustainable alternatives to each one. From carrying a reusable straw, to catching microfibers when you wash your clothes, to throwing plastic-free parties, you'll learn new and intuitive ways to reduce plastic waste. And by arming you with a wealth of facts about global plastic consumption and anecdotes from activists fighting plastic around the world, you'll also learn how to advocate to businesses and leaders in your community and across the country to commit to eliminating disposable plastics for good"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Ewa Beach P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kealakekua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Laupahoehoe P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 Mc Checked In Add Copy to MyList Pahoa P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 363.738 McC Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
