    Falklands prepares for the Big Plastic Count, starting next week

    Plastic waste is even more important issue in the Falklands than the UK, as it is not able to be recycled. This means the majority of plastic ends up in landfill.

    Next week (16th-22nd May), Falkland Islands residents should consider taking part in Falkland Conservation’s Big Plastic Count. Inspired by Greenpeace's plastic count in the UK, Falklands Conservation are launching an island-wide survey with the aim of recording all plastic used by Falklands residents in just one week.
