MWT wants to change public mindset
Conservationists have made a renewed call for people in the Island to give up single-use plastics, where they can.
The Manx Wildlife Trust says it welcomes the government's plan to switch to sustainable alternatives within departments by 2021.
But the charity, which is running a 'wave goodbye to plastics' campaign, says things should be happening faster.
Graham Makepeace-Warne says the public can play their part:
