Reviews
Plastic Free July inspires me to step up my commitment to reducing single-use plastic in my daily life and on tour., Passionate call to action. ['Plastic Free' is] a comprehensive guidebook to anti-plastic activism. Sage advice for reducing plastic consumption, a necessity for our survival. Our verdict: Get it., Plastic Free shows us how to organize around our innate desire for a beautiful, clean environment and eventually change, in a fundamental way, the system that unnecessarily creates the ugly mess., Plastic Free shows how one person's actions can ripple out and cause good around the globe. Never has there been a more important time to share hope and action and combine them for our Mother Earth., Some people feel overwhelmed by the environmental state of affairs and wait for politicians or manufacturers to change; others, like Rebecca Prince-Ruiz, take matters into their own hands, starting with their own lives. This is the success story of a global movement. It proves that change is in consumers' hands, that individual action has more power than ever. Use this book to be inspired, or, better, use it as a template to change the world in your own way!, This is an inspiring and easy read for anyone questioning their plastic use. It provides comprehensive background information for educators and would make a welcome addition to a high school library., The more time I spend at sea, the more I realize that the solutions start on land. This book will guide you on that journey to making global change for the ocean from your doorstep., Few people have spent as much time as Rebecca Prince-Ruiz trying to work out how to minimize the plastic in our lives., Plastic Free is the remarkable story of how a social media post from an isolated corner of Western Australia grew into a global network of 250m activists. The 'accidental campaign' has since grown into an influential environmental movement., Not just an inspiring story and a practical resource, this is evidence that grassroots actions by ordinary individuals and communities can make a material difference to the most wicked of environmental and social problems. Hats off., Motivating. 'Plastic Free July' founder [Rebecca] Prince-Ruiz tells the story of how she started an environmental movement and offers solutions for decreasing waste in this accessible account. Readers eager to reduce their plastic consumption would do well to pick up this excellent primer.
