The main picture is a sea-turtle disfigured by a tiny plastic ring from a drinks bottle. 8 million tonnes of plastic is floating around in the world's oceans. 

Please support us as we under-take this deceptively difficult challenge:

Use no single-use plastic drinks bottles or cans for the whole of 2016.

The activity is to raise awareness of the problem of plastic pollution, especially in the sea. We will be avoiding cans as well because that's obviously just as wasteful. This will be tough for us because we love fizzy drinks! All funds raised go to Sea Shepherd, who work to protect the world's oceans.
