The Watch Group need your help to tally the amount of plastic waste we use each week! Replicating @Greenpeace and @EverydayPlastic in the UK we hope to better understand how the Falklands community are using plastic. To get involved visit our website https://t.co/gEtabE0pCV

Fantastic to see #SGSSI setting goals to go #plasticfree and renewable by 2025. Good luck!

[Government SGSSI @GovSGSSI]

Our Goal: Building Future Resilience

By 2025 all day-to-day power generation at our main station will be from renewable energy and all our operations will be single-use-plastic free

Great news! This year, @FalklandsGov will facilitate cruise ship beach cleans in the Falklands by disposing the waste collected. @FI_Conservation will use the data to better understand the problem. Find out more https://t.co/heT7snwH2i

We’re discussing #singleuse plastic at #PFSC2019. Specifically, how we can further reduce single-use in our polar operations, and how we can discourage guests to the polar regions from bringing single-use items on their journey. How have you reduced single use? #plastic

[Falklands Conservation @FI_Conservation]

Watch Group and plastic @FreeStanley will approve Siân - plastic bottles are the most common form of plastic waste found on #Falklands beaches.

What a fantastic community effort at today’s #beachclean in memory of Sarah Auffret, with about 70 people turning out to help clean Whalebone Cove. Made possible by the generous support of sulivanshipping @ Stanley,… https://t.co/Odlt1BFHAs

This trailer, for our short film, Westward Ho! Rises Against Plastic, shows how a community came together to learn more about plastic pollution and understand the actions needed to protect our planet's future.

We are excited to be working with @FalklandsGov on a scheme to facilitate cruise ships to remove ghost nets and other #plastic waste from #Falklands #beaches. #CleanSeas @sascampaigns @FI_Conservation

[Plastic Free Stanley @FreeStanley]

#plasticpollution isn’t always obvious, but it can still be deadly. #birdsofprey regurgitate the indigestible parts of their food, in this case a squid beak, feathers and #plastic. @Saeri Research shows that sadly it’s far from unique https://t.co/wj4szlVm3y

[Plastic Free Stanley @FreeStanley]

Awesome work @g_expedition on your recent #beachclean on Saunders Island #Falklands where guests and crew managed to remove a monster fishing net and other plastic debris. @sascampaigns @FalklandsGov #plasticfreestanley

[Richard Walker @icelandrichard]

More great coverage on our DRS trials. We need a UK-wide system. One that’s easy for everyone to use - manufacturers, retailers and customers. And a system that doesn’t drive footfall away from our already vulnerable high streets. https://t.co/0gg5K1iFdR
