    In Hastings East Sussex .31,000 homes were without water for 4 days. Southern Water set up water collection stations, where people could get water.
    It was being distributed in 2litre plastic bottles.
    Over that 4 day period, you do the maths that is getting near to 1 million plastic bottles if they all used 16 litres over that 4 day period.
    And when the plastic bottles have been used,where do they end up either in land fill sites or in the ocean..
    This government is doing nothing about PLASTIC DISPOSAL.

    • @paul756uk2
      @paul756uk2 Před 25 dny

      I think that's a reduction in what supermarkets used to give away and doesn't include the bags you have to buy which admittedly do last a lot longer. It's also just obfuscation as it's a small part of the overall use of plastic. Like when Justin Trudope banned plastic straws. It won't put a decimal point in the total consumption.

  • @paul756uk2
    @paul756uk2 Před 25 dny

    A 93 percent reduction in plastic bag is what people were charged for. Its also an insignificant amount of the total plastic being manufactured for single use. Theres no easy solution though. Glass uses a lot of energy to manufacture and if uts going to be on a deposit scheme, this us an industry in itself requiring a massive infrastructure wirh transportation, storage, cost if employment which ends up in the final product. Germany do it successfully but its nit without its problems and would take the uk years to put in place. There are also many products that just weren't available years ago but markets like bottled water and coffee pods are a modern phenomenon. Like, did you know that Evian produce 6 million bottles of water a day? They have a railway yard so they distribute that kind of quantity by rail. How do you get round the problem of plastic reduction with that industry?

  • @mwhitby502
    @mwhitby502 Před 18 dny

    Plastic is a very useful material and it shouldn't be deamoised. The awareness of the impact of our current plastic use is a good thing. This is just one example of how the world is getting slightly better. We should actually celebrate these little victories and not question them. The whole gender identity thing is another example of the world becoming a slightly better place, it's not woke or whatever that means to be supportive of that kind of thing, just accept that it's actually a bit of positivity that's getting a bit of press, we do'nt seem to accentuate the positive that much in the media because it dosent get as many clicks as the bad stuff, that's just human nature of course, but the media should try and sway it a bit more in favour of being a bit more positive.
    Instead of hating the mainstream media for the influence they have, why dont we try and reason with them?
