Almost 2 years' difference! Insanely grateful to have had the opportunity to write two of our own books at our ages. Grab a copy using the link in our bio 😊💚

(Although it seems the years can't change Ella's trusty finger guns!)

This is the action and urgency we need to see more of!! Balancing this with cutting plastic production from the source is just as important, and we ALL have a role to play by showing we don’t want this overproduction to continue… #PlasticPollution 🌍

[The Ocean Cleanup @TheOceanCleanup]

Latest extraction: over 16,000 kg (35,000 lbs) of plastic out of the ocean to be recycled into durable, sustainable products so it never re-enters the marine environment again.

A great example of a school completing level 1 of the Plastic Clever schools award. Well done to @Basildon_LA

[The Basildon Lower Academy @Basildon_LA]

The Lower Academy Eco Committee will soon be implementing the following initiatives in our quest to become a Plastic Clever School. #PlasticClever @KidsVplastic

In October, we hosted our Youth Symposium - where young people came together to discuss all things climate, conservation & sustainability!

We were joined by keynote speakers @Aneeshwar_K, @InkaCresswell & @KidsVplastic who talked to audiences about important conservation topics!

When it comes to protecting our planet, one group is proving that even children can make a world of change.

"The 1.5-degree limit is only possible if we ultimately stop burning all fossil fuels.

Not reduce.

Not abate.

Phaseout."

Incredible job @CHCC_Official! We were so impressed with your hard work to reduce plastic in school and go above and beyond to spread the Plastic Clever message. Keep up the great work! 🙌

[Crown Hills Community College @CHCC_Official]

We were awarded as an 'Outstanding Plastic Clever Secondary School' due to our sustainability ideas being embedded in our curriculum. We were gifted tshirts & a £100 waterstones voucher which our librarian used to buy some new books for our library. @KidsVplastic @EcoSchoolsLCC

Tesco have potentially blown their chance to the the first supermarket to make a pledge to tackle the tat. Will another step up instead…?

@chrisdysonHT @BePlasticClever

[Kids Against Plastic @KidsVplastic]

No stamp needed as we have been able to meet with @Tesco representatives today! All we’ll say is… let the campaign continue!
Another reminder of why the campaign is so important - even @waitrose, who have ‘committed’ to change, and are still covered in tat
