The PM's push will accelerate Mirza's pursuit of inspiring people to live an ecologically friendly life and eliminate single use plastic from everyday life.

As a passionate advocate of the Beat Plastic Pollution campaign I am excited and encouraged by the Prime Minister's call for a revolution against single use plastics. I believe his personal commitment will give a much needed fillip to the movement." "
