Simple ways you can reduce use of single-use plastics

Worldwide, 400 million tons of plastic waste are produced in a single year. 'Plastic Free July' challenges people to make some small changes to reduce their use of plastics. It's not just a global problem, but a local problem too. About a half dozen teens did their part recently to help clean up Gandy Beach. Devon Francke with Keep Pinellas Beautiful says it's part of their summer clean-up series for teens. "We find a lot of different kinds of litter and trash out here. Plastic, single-use plastic is definitely the most common type of item we find across the board no matter where we are." It's a problem across the country, but in the bay area Francke says it can really mess up our beautiful beaches.
