PURGE ON PLASTICS

“On average, Australians use 130 kg of plastic per person each year. Only 12% of that's recycled.” [WWF]

The rest ends up in landfills, as litter on roadsides and in parks, and floating in our oceans for hundreds of years before breaking down into microplastics.

We want no part in that at Forktree! Every scrap of plastic that we find in the land clean-up process is collected, washed and taken to a soft plastic recycling collection point.

We can all do this with any soft plastic wrapping we collect at home - check out your local supermarket to see if they have a soft plastic collection point.
