Avoiding plastic at the beach can be challenging, but sustainable alternatives are available for swimwear, toys and more. For toys and beach accessories, consider borrowing from toy libraries or opting for silicon and bioplastic items. Key quote:“If you’re looking for plastic-free nirvana, you may never find it.”— Anne-Marie Soulsby, aka the Sustainable Lifecoach. Why this matters:Reducing plastic use at the beach helps preserving our oceans and the wildlife that inhabits them. Marine pollution, largely driven by single-use plastics, wreaks havoc on sea creatures, from fish and turtles to birds and marine mammals.
