How do we stop the oceans being trashed? How do we eliminate microplastics from our wastewater? Is recycling really the answer to reducing waste? This book offers practical tools for change: in your kitchen, on your weekly shop and around your home, as well as in the wider world. Over the past decade, the sheer scale of the problems caused by waste have leapt in our collective awareness. Our patience with government policy and corporate greenwash is wearing thin. There is a hunger to address the root causes of our disposable lifestyles and to make the right choices now. If you, like millions of others, want no part in adding more plastics, microplastics and other wastes and pollutants into our water, soils and food, then this book for you. Towards Zero Waste offers clear guidance for anyone wanting to be a part of positive change in the world. Book jacket.
