Plastic Free Merton
working together to reduce single-use plastics
across the borough
At a time when concern about the climate crisis continues to escalate, we are inspiring local people to live a more sustainable lifestyle so that we can all be part of the solution.
We are on a mission to clean up Merton's air, tackle food poverty and reduce our consumption of energy and resources across the borough.
We want all residents to lead healthier, happier, more sustainable lifestyles - living in the present in a way that doesn't compromise the future of our planet.
By working together we can make this happen.
