Have you seen this amount of plastic overflowing in a skip? Did you know that to produce 14 plastic bags it takes the equivalent amount of the fuel required to drive one mile? This picture was taken in Mrieħel next to some shops. Action could have been taken by reducing packaging and saying “no” to single-use plastic. As a student at Dingli Primary School, I am aware that lots of action is being taken by the school to reduce plastic waste.
