The Great Plastic divestment
The Great Plastic Divestment aims to reduce single-use plastics purchased at LSE, eliminate plastic litter on campus and improve waste data collection. Throughout Michaelmas Term our team devised a 44-page report - an investigation of plastic waste at LSE. Now we are implementing the most urgent solutions proposed in the report: 1) a Zero Waste Shop as part of the LSE General Store, 2) the installation of special cigarette butt bins and 3) extensive waste audits to enable the improvement of waste data. You have the unique opportunity to join our team and contribute towards making these projects a reality!
