Eastleigh MP Chris Huhne has added his support to the international 'Plastic Bag Free Day' campaign on 12th September.
The campaign is designed to highlight the over-reliance on plastic bags and the damage they can do to the environment - with over 200 million plastic bags in the UK alone polluting our beaches, seas and landscapes.
Commenting on the campaign, Chris Huhne said: "Going without plastic bags for a day is something that we can all achieve, especially with the support of both national and local businesses.
"It is imperative for the future of the environment that we reduce our use of plastic.
"This campaign is a big step in the right direction to reducing the number of plastic bags we use unnecessarily in this country every day."
