More plastic-free takeaways

I've updated the plastic-free takeaways post, thanks to some info from a friend :)

I'm thankful for the timing, because lately I've been thinking a lot about Beth Terry's line "There is no 'away'" (I usually think about this while I'm throwing some piece of plastic "away" in the rubbish bin), and also about the Great Pacific Garbage Patch in the North Pacific Gyre.

Someone recently told me that this is like an iceburg—what you see on the surface is only a tiny portion of what is below the surface. The thought of all that plastic rubbish floating around in the ocean makes me want to rush out to the nearest beach and start picking up every bit of rubbish I can see.
