School is "out" now, but with a summer unlike any in our recent memory, kids are still at home while adults are trying to telework. Good books to the rescue! If you are on the hunt for fun and entertaining reading that is also educational, we've discovered a great children's book about the travels of a plastic bag.
Bag in the Wind by Ted Kooser teaches readers about waste, reuse, and recycling. It includes
facts and action items specific to the problems of single-use plastic bags. It's a timely read as we head into Plastic Free July, a month-long, global campaign to reduce plastic waste and pollution. See more about the book below.
Eco Partners is sharing a free copy of this book with one lucky reader! We'll draw a random name from all those who enter by Friday, July 10. Just
send us an email with
Bag in the Wind in the subject line and tell us how you "choose to refuse" single-use plastic bags. Feel free to include any plans to participate in Plastic Free July, too!
How is plastic bag waste handled in your community? We would love to work with you to communicate this and other information about solid waste programs in the community you serve. Just g
ive me a call
or email me.
Keep those bags out of the wind (and waste stream)!
