Progress association meeting to focus on plastics

The next meeting of the Empire Bay Progress Association will be held at the Empire Bay Progress Hall from 7:30pm on Tuesday, April 18.

The meeting will focus on plastic pollution in and around the bay.

The Association has invited National Parks and Wildlife Service bush regeneration coordinator Ms Deb Holloman to speak about the damage plastic bags and bottles are wreaking on the environment and to discuss ways communities can be more environmentally responsible and sustainable when it comes to plastic pollution.

The Association is launching a "plastic free as we can be" campaign for Empire Bay and has begun coordinating efforts with local businesses and established environmental campaign, Take 3 for the Sea.

The association has also submitted an application to Central Coast Council for the installation of a bottle refilling station at a suitable location.
