PARTY: Green
OCCUPATION: Works at University of Worcester
AGE: No response
Although living in the Malvern Hills, I have worked at the University of Worcester since graduating in 2002, actively raising environmental awareness amongst staff and students.
I am currently spearheading the Plastic Bags - No Thanks' campaign in Malvern, where the challenge is to persuade retailers to stop offering free plastic bags to customers and thus reduce plastic bag use by 90 per cent within a year.
My particular concern is our wasteful, consumerist society, and the need to start regarding waste as a valuable resource in order to stop the depletion of the earth's natural resources.
