If you didn’t catch #Drowninginplastic last night I would recommend you do. It’s devastating to watch and just reminds me to continue to take action against the plight of plastic

[Liz Bonnin 💙 @lizbonnin]

Thank you for watching and for your all your comments! I want to continue the conversation about turning the plastic tap off at the source. Join me at @RGS_IBG on 29th November for a talk and expert panel discussion about where the plastic buck stops. #DrowningInPLastic 🌎💙🐋

@amagervillage @thewholygrain @lessstuffnow @SWGreenRoom Great pledges 👍 I have tried to cook more from scratch, use green cleaning products and reduce my plastic

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@PebbleMagazine @TheHoxtonLDN @SoilAssociation I’ll be there!!

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

Some great tips for #wetwipe alternatives from @OrpingtonKids https://t.co/3DJ1Rwkg1q

[Orpington Kids With Dogs @OrpingtonKids]

@thewholygrain @make_more_space @cheekywipes @PodgeAndTitch A bit of organising. If at home or nurserys a bowl of water and cotton wool. As I'm sure we were told by midwifes. Out and about most place have good baby changing facilities now. A sink and soap for those up the backers!

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@OrpingtonKids @thewholygrain @cheekywipes @PodgeAndTitch I really do see it from both sides. I do think there is a solution though. I guess it’s similar to the idea of using cloth nappies which is a bit of extra work but worth it for the environment again completely depends on the individual mothers and their own circumstances

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

I know that some parents are upset about the wet wipe ban but I’m not because there are many alternatives for example taking a damp flannel in a waterproof container or even purchasing @cheekywipes. Thoughts @PodgeAndTitch? #wetwipes https://t.co/U4ppAe9XQd

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

The wetwipe debate continues over here. Anyone have anything to add? #wetwipes @cheekywipes @ZeroWasteChef @SENFunLondon @EKOearth_ https://t.co/SyZzMkTcdO

[Orpington Kids With Dogs @OrpingtonKids]

@make_more_space @cheekywipes @PodgeAndTitch @thewholygrain Belive me I have memories of having my face washed in the car and it wasn't particularly nice but wet wipes are pointless. Maybe some sort of essential oil might help. Lavender?

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@OrpingtonKids @cheekywipes @PodgeAndTitch @thewholygrain Yes, a waterspray with a few drops of essential oil would be great 👍

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@OrpingtonKids @cheekywipes @PodgeAndTitch @thewholygrain Thanks @OrpingtonKids great to hear your memories. About to purchase a pack of flannels that I will be carrying around in a waterproof bag. I’ll be documenting it. I agree that @cheekywipes wipes are on the pricey side but flannels are dirt cheap @thewholygrain thoughts?

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@unwrpd @Gina_Caro @MutinySoaps Thanks for the tip. Have you used their razors and soaps? What are they like?

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

Thanks for the recommendation @Gina_Caro #safetyrazor https://t.co/cZf0vOQYmI

[Georgina Caro @Gina_Caro]

@make_more_space I love my Merkur safety razor. I'd never go back to disposable razors now - https://t.co/vEoqQK1YlT

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@organicUK @SoilAssociation @SoilAssocScot Was this last night?

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@thewholygrain @cheekywipes @PodgeAndTitch @amagervillage @SWGreenRoom @GreenworcLiving @GreenUpLDN Agreed. There does need to be cheaper options to suit all budgets.

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@ParkLifeWLondon @cheekywipes Yes us to. I often just use a flannel or muslin cloths that I got with the @lizearle cleansers

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

Pleased to hear it @ParkLifeWLondon are you a fan of @cheekywipes https://t.co/GPVCR1B7tg

[Michele Johnson @bstgrl]

@make_more_space @cheekywipes @PodgeAndTitch Myself and @djkinrade are @cheekywipes fans too! I think they clean better than #wetwipes too.

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@thewholygrain @cheekywipes @PodgeAndTitch From an environmental perspective we need to start taking action. These ‘plastic tissues’ are convenient but they’re clogging up sewers & oceans & I want our planet to be beautiful for future gens. Who agrees/disagrees? @amagervillage @SWGreenRoom @GreenworcLiving @GreenUpLDN

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

@Dailytrashfree @Gina_Caro Let me know which one you go for and how you get on

[Make Space Less Waste @make_more_space]

Would you make the switch to a double edge safety razor? Any brand recommendations @Gina_Caro? #reduceplastic https://t.co/hRN9FCeyrw
