Students from St. Thomas More College Zejtun Secondary School organised a march in the streets of their community to protest the use of plastic bags as part of their SUP (Stop Using Plastic) campaign. They also canvassed the Zejtun market, where they stopped consumers who were carrying products in single-use plastic bags and showed them alternative solutions. The media was present during the event, which helped the students share their message with a wider audience. The school gave out free reusable bags to those present at the event, and the students brought in enough donations to “adopt” seven injured turtles!
Here is the Facebook page that the students created for the SUP campaign: https://www.facebook.com/SUPDbest/
