Each month we record our plastic waste to check how well, or not, the boycott is going. We count everything but the alcohol.
.
When I say alcohol I mean the plastic lined metal caps off beer and spirits, plastic wine corks, plastic lined cans of beer and tins of tonic water.
We don’t count these because it is too difficult to count.
.
Its hard to remember all of the drinks we have bought and for whom. I once tried to keep track in my notebook but it felt way too anal and garnered some strange looks. And when we buy drinks for other people, do we count that as our plastic trash or theirs?
.
Entertaining at home, people bring booze we drink it, whose fault the plastic wine cork? Going out, people offer us a drink, we don’t refuse because it is in a plastic lined can.
.
But also it’s not something we really want to share – it seems too personal. Yes we are alchoholics!
.
So go on have a look in our bin
