A team of 6 Mon CC Waste & Street Services staff collected litter on the A449 on 19th April between Wentwood Services county boundary and Usk. They collected 3/4 tonne waste - predominately plastic bottles and fast food containers.

As the Government continue their efforts to tackle plastic waste and litter, we welcome their consultation to ban plastic straws and cotton buds. https://t.co/XvO8qeZa70 #plasticpollution

New research, launching today from ourselves and @BRITAPRO – shows that although people are more aware of the environmental impacts of plastic pollution, this is not yet translating into behaviour change. More: https://t.co/m3dfEyzXmX #swapforgood 💧💚
