UPDATE - 3 May 2021
WAKE UP NSW GOVT – WE HAVE A PLASTIC PROBLEM!
South Australia has passed a law banning polluting single use plastic items; so too Queensland and the ACT; and WA and Victoria have announced plans to act. Why not NSW?
As the biggest state we produce a lot of plastic litter that reaches the ocean, killing and harming marine life and poisoning the food chain; and contaminating the land and air. Tens of thousands of tonnes are also dumped in landfill. NSW released a ‘’discussion paper’’ over a year ago full of good ideas – but still no action. Just like its ongoing failure to ban lightweight plastic bags! (every other state has banned them).
Boomerang Alliance has submitted a comprehensive policy to the Environment Minister that will lead to a major drop in plastic pollution and grow recycling.
But we need to break through the inertia in the NSW Government.
We need it to take concrete action, NOW. And we need your help.
