#Plastic-Free Berko by 2020
We petition Berkhamsted Town Council to commit to:
- eliminating by the end of 2018 all single-use plastic from their premises, offices, meetings and events
- using only re-usable coffee cups when possible, and compostable cups otherwise
- supporting plastic-free initiatives from our Plastic Free Berko group and other local sources in order to make Berkhamsted single-use plastic-free  by 2020
- nominating a committed councillor to join the Plastic-Free Berko steering committee
- recommending that DBC provides dual bins on the high street for recyclables and compostables as well as waste for landfill
- ensuring that households are alerted to the need to place the compostable cups we are encouraging cafes to use in their green household waste bins
- improving awareness of plastic pollution by publicising ways to reduce plastic usage
