A NEW pop-up exhibition is taking place in West Bay, highlighting the impact of single use plastic packaging on our seas. West Bay Discovery Centre’s latest pop-up exhibition, Turning the Tide, explores the timeline of how plastic developed and has been used. The exhibition will be going ahead until the end of October. It highlights the problems associated with the single-use plastics that are now widely used in packaging. Turning the Tide aims to educate visitors on how they can help in the fight to curb the ever-increasing amounts of microplastics in our oceans. The exhibition includes an interpretation of J.W Turner s famous painting of West Bay, cleverly created by members of the Bridport Shed using litter found on the beach.
Plastic Free Bridport organised the screening of the Story of Plastic film over a week. The screening concluded with a Q&A session via Zoom, which saw the Plastic Free Bridport (PFB) team joined by West Dorset MP Chris Loder, plastics campaign lead for Friends of the Earth (FOE) Camilla Zerr, and Polly Benfield and Grenville Barr of Plastic Free Lyme Regis along with several members of the public. Mr Loder updated those present with the progress of the Plastic Pollution Bill and his proposed amendment to the Environmental Bill, which is currently making progression through parliament. He spoke frankly about his personal position on single use plastics and his hopes for more progress being made in working towards eliminating them, particularly in the food industry.
