Plastic waste affects streets, parks, beaches and natural areas. This short GOMO guide focuses on practical habits that individuals and communities can adopt right away.
Four simple actions
- Bring your own reusable bags when shopping or visiting the market.
- Say no to single-use plastics such as plastic straws and cutlery, and choose reusable alternatives.
- Take part in local clean-up events in parks, beaches and neighbourhoods.
- Teach others about recycling and share what you know with friends and family.
Small actions add up
Keeping a city clean is a shared responsibility. Repeating simple habits, joining community action and talking about waste reduction can help more people take part.
Keep our cities clean together
GOMO encourages everyone to share practical ideas for reducing plastic waste and inspire others to make cleaner, more sustainable choices.
