Today is International Plastic Bag Free Day (who knew?) but hopefully you'll already have your trusty bag for life tucked into your rucksack. This month here at LoveReading4Kids we will be joining millions of people across the world in reducing their plastic waste. This month, Plastic Free July, and every month.

Over 400 million tons of plastic are produced globally each year. 1/3 of all plastic waste ends up in soil and freshwater – a major threat to the environment and our health. 

Plastic Free July is a global movement that helps millions of people be part of the solution to plastic pollution so we can have cleaner streets, oceans, and beautiful communities.

Plastic Free July provides resources and ideas to help you (and millions of others around the world) reduce single-use plastic waste everyday at home, work, school, and when you're out and about.

The movement has inspired over 120 million participants in 177 countries. You making a small change will collectively make a massive difference to our communities.

You can choose to refuse single-use plastics in July (and beyond!). Best of all, being part of Plastic Free July will help you to find great alternatives that can become new habits forever. Will you be part of Plastic Free July by choosing to refuse single-use plastics?

Here we have selected some books to help you in your cause, we hope you enjoy this collection!
