No, it's not my #litter,
and it isn't my job either!

But now the good #karma is mine!

What better way to start a Friday than to share a bit of positive news!

We loved seeing this post from @SEALIFEScarboro this week, their team were called down to help with a seal entanglement.

[The 2 Minute Foundation @2minuteHQ]

Whilst this seal was thankfully received help, there are sadly many marine animals out there that end up entangled. Any litter you can pick up, both on land, on the beach and in the ocean, helps to protect our wildlife.

[The 2 Minute Foundation @2minuteHQ]

A bottle-return scheme where people will be paid to hand in plastic, steel or aluminium for recycling at a collection point is scheduled to come into force in England and Northern Ireland in 2027.

[The 2 Minute Foundation @2minuteHQ]

New parliamentary regulations have now been introduced to enable the appointment of a managing body for the scheme in April this year ahead of its scheduled launch in October 2027.

Just a little reminder (or boost) for those doing a low-buy or no-buy year, we know that lots of you use January as a time to reset and reassess your shopping habits.

[The 2 Minute Foundation @2minuteHQ]

January can also be a time where you may also feel you need a whole new wardrobe ahead of spring coming up, try shopping second-hand where you can, and even 'shopping' your own wardrobe - you will be surprised at what you already own!

If you get clear skies over the next few nights it’s a great chance to be outside after sunset and see how many planets you can spot, let me know how you get on?
