Beyond Plastics
Plastic pollution has become one of the most urgent environmental issues in the world.
And it’s getting worse. Without a global response, there could be more plastic in the sea than fish by 2050. We need urgent action to stop the plastics crisis and its disastrous consequences for nature, humans, wildlife, tourism and the economy.
Correcting our plastic waste problem requires a mindshift about how plastics are made, used and disposed of.
Boneiru Duradero partnered with Travel Without Plastic to develop a series of short online training modules to show you how to reduce plastic and save money. The e-Learning program was made possible through funding from the World Wide Fund for Nature in the Netherlands (WWF-NL).
