Following our previous briefs with City to Sea, we have got another one to help them reduce flushed plastic pollution. With many of us being at home at the moment, our message is more important than ever.
We hope you’ll go potty for this one!

About:
City to Sea is an environmental not-for-profit, campaigning to stop plastic pollution at source. Their award-winning campaigns are tackling the single-use plastic items found most commonly on our beaches and in our rivers and oceans by providing practical, solutions- focused campaign and championing reuse over single-use.
We’re literally flushing the health of our oceans down the toilet. Did you know that items like wet wipes, period products and nappies contain plastic? Our toilets are part of our water cycle. Any time you thoughtlessly flush something down the loo, someone or something has to remove it in order for us to access clean drinking water. Or it ends up as a very toxic dinner for some poor sea creature.
The worst offending flushed items are: wet wipes, period products, nappies, tooth-floss, cotton buds, contact lenses, cigarettes, incontinence pads and tooth floss.
We want to raise awareness of the worst offending items and encourage people to stop people from using the toilet as a bin. City to Sea are helping to connect our actions to our oceans, from bathroom to beach!
