The film features the fatal effect of plastics on an albatross colony. Be prepared to force yourself to watch to the end.
You probably agree there is a current ramp-up for us humans surrounding single-use plastic, as there should be. The question continues, “What can we do about it?”
One of the emerging possibilities locally is a trip to the new business WeFill on North Main Avenue. This is not an advertisement – it is a statement of paradigm shift.
The system: I supply the clean container, WeFill supplies the contents – all the way from dish detergent to body lotion to foot soak salts and much more. I also found bamboo toothbrushes, dental floss in little glass bottles, mesh produce bags and beyond. It’s a feel-good field trip every time I go.
Heads up, however – at packing-up time, there is not a single use plastic bag to be found anywhere … so, well … we all know what to do about that.
