Stainless Steel straws have been shown to be hazards for marine life and seabirds especially.  Animals mistake the straw for a food item or it becomes entangled in their nostrils with devastating effects.

Plastic waste made into fish shapes.  The amount of fishing line and fishing nets lost and loose in the ocean is hidden - and just as huge.  Everytime people go fishing they cut loose fishing line and it stays to cut and cripple ocean life.  We encourage you to use stainless steel straws.

Finding ways to work within eco-friendly lifestyle is the way to go.  Despite what people may say, taking individual efforts does make a difference and inspres others to follow your lead.

There are so many little ways to curate your lifestyle so you minimise harm on the environment.  It is no longer socially acceptable to live in a flagrantly wasteful manner.

Simple stickers like this help raise awareness - just as stainless steel straws help reduce plastic wastage.

Clean Up Australia Day 2019

After numerous years crusading, a restriction on plastic sacks is on the plan at the Environment Ministers meeting on Friday 25 November 2016. It is the ideal opportunity for activity on plastic sacks - for the last time.

Plastic Bag Free gatherings have been running neighborhood activities and gathering a great many supporters. In 2012 Plastic Bag Free NSW volunteers have gathered 12,472 marks on an appeal requesting that the NSW government present a prohibition on lightweight plastic packs.

On the fourth June 2015 the Plastic Bag Ban request was introduced to Bruce Notley-Smith (Member for Coogee) at NSW Parliament House; and Bruce set off a parliamentary discussion for 13 August 2015. Plastic Bag Free Victoria introduced in August 2016, a huge number of names to their Parliament and the Vic Greens have held up a bill to boycott the pack and other harming plastics.

Vitally the Qld government will be issuing a Discussion Paper on a pack boycott soon in 2016. We are campaigning for different states to participate.

A July 2015 Omnipoll uncovered 63% of Australians (and furthermore basic supply purchasers) bolster a prohibition on single utilize plastic sacks from general stores and stores. 81% help the current boycott in South Australia indicating open help develops once a boycott becomes effective.

We have given all state and government condition clergymen with the actualities and a point by point approach position. While past states, for example, SA and NT have prohibited plastic sacks they made a noteworthy escape clause by permitting purported biodegradable packs - yet these basically separate into little pieces (microplastics) and contain overwhelming metals. They should be restricted as well.
 We all agree smoothie straws make great fundraising ideas.
