Christmas Waste

Adam Walton explores the environmental impact of Christmas.

Adam Walton explores how much we throw away at Christmas and asks what the impact is on our environment.

Marine Biologist, Dr Winnie Courtene-Jones, describes how micro plastics make their way into our air, soil, and waterways.

Founder of Trim Tabs Ltd, Dr Alvin Orbaek-White, tells us how we can transform single-use plastic waste into more useful materials.

Plus, Emma Hallett from WRAP Cymru, highlights the extent of food waste at this time of year and tells us what we can do to better reduce, reuse, and recycle our waste.
