Human influence on the planet and its functioning is widespread and spreading, such that no biome of the Earth's surface is free from interactions with humanity. Plastic debris is a pervasive anthropogenic contaminant, identified in marine ecosystems across the globe, and recognized as a serious global environmental concern. Life Without Plastic provides a helpful guide to encourage those around us to reduce waste and plastic consumption. Indeed, becoming a plastic-free hero capable of fitting an entire year's worth of rubbish into a jar certainly doesn't happen overnight! This book provides thoughtful information to help families plan ahead and change one step at a time--from lunch packing gear to sports equipment."--Céline Jennison, co-founder, Plastic Tides "Forget the title! You don't have to be seeking a life without plastic to get a lot out of this book. It's a fantastic resource for anyone concerned about the overwhelming place plastic holds in modern life."--Susan Freinkel, author, Plastic: A Toxic Love Story, "Jay and Chantal's wonderful book provides a clear roadmap for protecting our families, our oceans and our personal health from the dangers of single use plastic."--Marcus Eriksen and Anna Cummins, co-founders, The 5 Gyres Institute " Life Without Plastic has given me hope for what is possible in eliminating this toxic threat from our lives.

SynopsisAfter the birth of their son, Jay Sinha and Chantal Plamondon set out on a journey to eliminate plastic baby bottles as the Canadian government moved to ban BPA. When they found it was difficult to procure glass baby bottles, Jay and Chantal made it their mission to not only find glass and metal replacements for plastic, but to make those products accessible to the public as well. Printed on FSC-certified paper and with BPA-free ink, Life Without Plastic strives to create more awareness about BPA-based products, polystyrene and other single-use plastics, and provides readers with ideas for safe, reusable and affordable alternatives. While plastic has its uses in technology, the medical and industrial sectors and some products around the home, single-use plastics may release chemicals when they come in contact with food and water. These disposable plastics are commonly used to package food and drinks as well as personal care and cleaning products. Jay and Chantal show readers how to analyze their personal plastic use, find alternatives and create easy replacements in this step-by-step guide. Get your family healthier, spread consciousness and radiate positive plastic-free energy by taking action to help the environment.
