University of Leeds pledges to go plastic free
The University of Leeds and Leeds University Union have together pledged to become single-use plastic-free by 2023.
Single-use plastic items are designed to be used only once before they are thrown away or recycled.
The campaign, Single Out: 2023PlasticFree, crucially commits the University and Union to phase out single-use plastic across the board, not just in catering and office spaces.
