Single-use plastics are devastating our oceans and wildlife β€” but how often do they affect your daily life? 🌍 From plastic straws and bags to water bottles, styrofoam cups and microbeads, we’re surrounded by single-use plastics every single day. πŸ₯€ On average, one person consumes 9 pounds (4 kg) of single-use plastic every month, contributing to littering, pollution, and waste management issues. By some estimates, by 2050 there could be more plastic than fish in the sea. 🐟 What single use plastic do you avoid the most? Inspired to make a change?
