Plastic Free Seaford

Empowering our community to tackle the single-use plastics epidemic
START YOUR PLASTIC FREE JOURNEY TODAY
How can Seaford create a disposable, single-use plastic free Town?
Surfers Against Sewage first created the ‘Wasteland’ campaign to create plastic free coastlines, Wasteland being a metaphor for the largest concentration of plastic in the ocean. Thanks to the success of likeminded people wanting to rid the oceans of plastic litter, they created the Plastic Free Communities campaign to take into account all of the inland communities that wanted to act!

There are five objectives that Surfers Against Sewage qualify as the criteria in getting towns to successfully become plastic free. Once they have been achieved the Town will be awarded the ‘Plastic Free Status’ which is similar to the FairTrade model. Businesses and the Town will then be awarded approved business stickers and certificates when the whole community is approved.
