REBO partners with Radio 105 against plastic waste
To show once again our commitment against plastic-waste we supported the 105 Save the Sea initiative organised by Radio 105 . These are four events held in beautiful beaches along the Italian coast to increase awareness against plastic waste by organising clean-ups, games and music concerts.
What is Plastic Free July?
It is a global movement launched by the Plastic Free Foundation, dedicated to raising awareness on the dangers posed by plastic waste, and challenging the general public to reduce their use of single-use plastics.
Why is Plastic Free July important?
Humans produce about 300 million tons of plastic every year and an alarming half of it is for single-use items. That’s almost the weight of the entire human population. Even if people have been making an effort to recycle their plastic, of the 7 billion tons of plastic waste generated globally, only 9% has been recycled so far. Because plastic is not easily recycled, a major amount of single-use plastics are either: - Buried in the earth where they degrade into tiny particles and pollute the land where we grow our food - Or, they find their way into the oceans thereby polluting our waters and threatening the lives of seafood.
How does REBO celebrate Plastic Free July?
REBO, is the smart water bottle created with the goal of fighting plastic waste. For every 600 ml of water drunk with REBO, one plastic bottle is collected from the ocean. Forever. To show once again our commitment against plastic-waste we supported the 105 Save the Sea initiative organised by Radio 105 . These are four events held in beautiful beaches along the Italian coast to increase awareness against plastic waste by organising clean-ups, games and music concerts.
