This book answers all of your burning questions about plastic and offers tangible ways to get involved, reduce plastic use, and create a more plastic-free future!
Our Thoughts:
It's World Oceans Day and one of biggest issues the ocean faces today is man-made pollution. And most of it is plastic!
Can you remember a time when there was no plastic, or perhaps just not as much as there is today? Can you imagine the impact all of that plastic, used by millions of people around the world, has on our planet? Have you ever thought about making small changes to replace single-use items in your daily life?
Kids vs. Plastic is a great resource to learn all about how plastic is made and used, how it affects our planet, and how we can 'ditch' it. Learn the lifespan of plastics in nature so you can make better choices in products and remember to 'pack it out' when outdoors or how to get your community involved by organizing creative cleanups.
This book is full of easy alternatives to single-use products as well as tips on how to recycle, upcycle, and much more!
This is a fantastic book for kids who want to make a difference in the world, or already do!
