Dear friend,
Right now Environment Secretary Michael Gove is deciding what to do to tackle plastic pollution in the UK. He’s asking the public what they think about a ‘bottle deposit scheme’ - where a small charge is added to the cost of a bottle. It’s proven to increase recycling dramatically, and could help stop one of the main culprits of plastic litter from reaching our seas.
We need to make sure Michael Gove goes ahead with the idea. If thousands of us take the survey about bottle deposits now, he’ll have evidence that the public is behind him and will have to do it. So will you take the short survey now?

If thousands of us take the survey on plastic pollution - telling Michael Gove that our recycling systems aren’t enough, and we’re behind a bottle deposit system - it could be the push he needs to act.
Will you take the survey on plastic pollution now? Your answers to the survey will be given straight to Michael Gove when the deadline for evidence ends on Monday:
