Plastic waste: Is it time to cut back on holiday inflatables?
One group working with the couple to avoid plastic waste is Plastic Free North Devon.
Martin Dorey runs a beach cleaning campaign, #2minutebeachclean, on the north Cornish coast and says he finds punctured inflatables left on the beach. "If it gets into the sea it'll get broken down into pieces and harm wildlife. They can get entangled into them or they can eat them. If it gets in the ocean it's just a death trap," he says.Amy Meek and her sister, Ella, run the Kids Against Plastic charitywith her younger sister, Ella. She says the plastic used in inflatables is designed to be durable.
Yet John Hourston, founder of the Bournemouth-based campaign group Blue Planet Society, says that they should stop being produced all together.
