Why banish the plastic bag?Each year, people around the world use over 1 trillion plastic bags. In turn, millions of seabirds and mammals are killed every year by plastic bag entanglement or ingestion. Not only do plastic bags kill marine life, their production releases billions of kilograms of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, fuelling climate change and threatening the Reef. Take the pledge with us to banish the bag!
