You can count on the fact that they will be armed with a myriad of statistics and be fully prepared for the negotiations.Read more

Queensland Conservation Council’s Plastic Bag Free Queensland campaign invites members of the public to take part in BAG FREE FEBRUARY.
During the month of February, shoppers are asked to swear off single-use plastic bags and see how easy it is to live plastic bag free. They will be encouraged to take their own reusable bags shopping, and to ask retailers to provide alternatives such as compostable plastic bags, re-useable bags, or to re-use boxes if possible.
