WE WORK IN COMMUNITIES TO REDUCE SINGLE-USE
PLASTIC PACKAGING
TO CREATE LASTING
CHANGE TOWARDS A
CIRCULAR ECONOMY
In 2017, Boomerang Alliance started the Plastic Free Noosa project. Our goal was simple - assist businesses to reduce single-use plastics, and create a guide so other communities could replicate it.
We soon realised that working with businesses, suppliers and the packaging industry to achieve this change was anything but simple!
SO WE CREATED 'PLASTIC FREE PLACES' - A COMPREHENSIVE PROGRAM THAT CAN BE IMPLEMENTED BY US IN ANY COMMUNITY.
We've now implemented our program in over 20 communities across Australia, and many of our projects now focus solely on reuse!
