Environmentalist welcomes plastic plan

But work still needed to tackle litterers

A leading environmentalist has welcomed the government's plastic reduction plan.

In a formal launch event at the Legislative Buildings yesterday (23 July), Beach Buddies founder Bill Dale said the move is a positive step forward in combatting pollution at its source.

However, Mr Dale, believes the plan should look at tackling the 'one or two per cent' of Islanders who choose to litter.
