The Big Plastic Count

That’s good. You can do your own analysis. See if some weeks you use more plastic than others. It’ll be interesting to know if you use more or less than you did last month or if it’s pretty much the same.

DUH! If I can find my record sheet that went into the scrap paper pile

Wonders will never cease, I've found it. I suspect it'll be much the same , we're very much creatures of habit.

Just submitted my count, it must have been a slow week for us.

   

Just done mine as well.     

I've tried to do mine but the website crashed, I'll try later.

It was incredibly slow when I did mine. I found other things to do and just kept going back to it. I guessed everyone was trying to do theirs at the same time.

Here's mine, I finally managed to do it but not yet had the email confirmation. Here's a screenshot.

   

It's bulked up by all the wrappers and sleeves round big and small bottles of milk products which we always remove before going into the blue bin. Every bit of plastic has to be disposed of somewhere, though.

I hadn’t considered the plastic label around the bottle! I didn’t count the lids separately either. Especially not with the coke bottles as they’re attached now.

I haven't added my plastic up yet. Tried the website but it was too busy so gave up. Later!

That’ll be why my count was lower than I expected, our milks delivered in glass bottles.
