Every Piece Of Plastic You’ve Ever Used Still Exists

  • Your first toothbrush.
  • Your first toothbrush.
  • The straw you used in 2003.
  • The red cup from high school parties.
  • The shampoo bottle from your college dorm.
  • The plastic wrap from last night’s leftovers.

It’s all still here. And it’ll be here long after you’re gone.

It’s time we rethink our waste and leave behind a better legacy.

This Plastic-Free July, join us and 170 million+ others in fighting plastic pollution.

What is Plastic Free July?

And this year, ZeroWasteStore is making it easier than ever to join in.Start small, swap smart, and help us make 2025 even bigger.
