#TBT to earlier this year when over 100 scientists

#TBT to earlier this year when over 100 scientists signed a statement deeming it still safe to #reuse and #refill containers for food, drinks and groceries, as long as they are thoroughly washed between uses. 🙌

Check out the video for a quick guide showing the best practice on how to safely get your coffee fix when out and about. ☕

Please share and encourage your friends and family to remember their reusable mugs if they’re off out for a takeaway coffee!

After last week’s fly tipping incidents we can all feel a bit helpless at times.. At Litter Free Dorset we can do our bit to spread the message in the community that fly tipping comes in all shapes and sizes.. whether that is a bag 'placed' by a bin or garden waste 'popped' over your hedge.

Back in summer we worked with Portland Stone Firms Ltd, Portland Town Council, @dorsetcounciluk, and @dorsetwildlife to remind residents to look after their nearby quarriers and take items to their local recycling centres.

Is it too early to be thinking about Christmas? If you know someone that is still using disposable masks send a hint and give them a reusable mask in their stocking

A reminder that it is still safe to #reuse and #refill!

This six-step, contactless method enables reusable coffee cups to remain on the take-out menu. With low covid-transmission risk and reduced use of single-use take-out coffee cups, this is a win-win situation! Support and encourage your local cafes to continue accepting reusables. ♻️☕

Did you know that bagged dog mess can be discarded into any public litter bin? If no red dog poo bin around, please don't fret - responsibly dispose of it in a nearby public litter bin instead! 🐕💩🚮🙌

Calling all Dorset residents who live nearby or frequently visit our heathlands – we need your help!⁠ 📢⁠
⁠
Litter Free Dorset and the Urban Heaths Partnership are asking for those who live nearby Dorset’s heathlands, or frequently visit them, to participate in a quick, 2 minute, anonymous, online survey to help us shape and improve our #BBQsBurnMoreThanBangers campaign for relaunch next summer.⁠

Dog poo is the most offensive type of litter - 2 of the bacteria in dog poo, E.coli and Intestinal enterococci, impact the quality of water in our rivers and the sea. ⁠
⁠
Leaving your dog's poop to be washed away transports it into our waterways and out to sea. A single gram of dog poo diluted in one million litres of sea water can still pose a health risk to swimmers, paddleboarders and other river and sea users!⁠

Can you spot the poop? 🔎 With autumn well and truly here, left dog mess can be easily camouflaged by fallen leaves and fur cones. No one wants to step in your dog's mess... please remember to always #BagItBinIt! 🍂🐶💩🚮 ⁠
