Hello super supporters!
Today the campaign has reached an amazing 105,000 supporters which is absolutely fantastic and it could not have been reached without you all - so thank you! It is great to see more and more people highlighting and becoming aware of the environmental impact the avoidable plastic content in period products is having globally!
I have been sharing your comments and reasons for signing the campaign on social media to show your views, raise awareness and celebrate the brilliant people (you!) who are supporting the campaign! If you would like to see if you have been featured yet have a look by searching for @ecoelleuk on social media!
Here are five ways you can get involved with the campaign:
- Starting conversations, which will raise much needed awareness.
- You can make a positive difference right now by going green on your flow by opting for plastic-free and reusable versions! If you are open to talking about this please use the #GoGreenOnYourFlow on social media, this will also show how much of a demand there is for eco-friendly products!
- You can stop them being a threat to wildlife by making sure they never enter waterways and the wider environment by disposing of them in the bin instead of flushing.
- Call on supermarkets to go plastic free and to stock alternatives in the meantime! They cannot ignore consumer demand!
- And finally please continue to support the campaign by sharing it - so that we can spread the message far and wide that we want to end period plastic!
This week is the first ever Environmenstrual week of action and with so many events and people raising their voices about various issues surrounding periods, why not join in on social media using the hashtags #EWOA and #endperiodplastic!
Keep an eye out as there are more updates to come over the next few weeks!
And thank you as always for your continued support!
Ella
