‘It’s just one plastic straw’ said 7.7 Billion people! Lizzie and Tom discuss how single-use plastic has reached the remotest parts of the planet - even to the bottom of the Mariana Trench. This episode reveals the extent of how plastic pollution injures and kills millions of marine animals such as dolphins and turtles every year, and how it has now entered the human food chain. We also learn about some of the simple changes everyone can make to remove single-use plastic from their daily life, and move towards a reusable and sustainable existence.
