Say NO! to Plastic - Buy a Reusable Bag and Save a Turtle!

Plastic bags are becoming a major marine problem for the same reason that they are a commercial success - they don’t break down. Every year, 17½ billion plastic bags are given away by supermarkets, equivalent to over 290 bags for every person in the UK. We produce and use 20 times more plastic today than we did 50 years ago.

Sadly, mistaking polythene bags for jellyfish has caused the deaths of many Leatherback Turtles. A discarded bag fills with water and floats, semi-submerged on the water's surface. To a turtle this looks just like a jellyfish and is swallowed with terrible consequences, usually resulting in death for the turtle as the bag either twists in its gut or blocks digestion.

The hazards of the plastic bag do not stop with the turtles. Plastics never fully degrade; plastic bags eventually turn into plastic “dust” which can still be ingested by filter feeding marine animals such as jellyfish. Plastic is highly toxic, and toxins are passed up the food chain to the fish and ultimately human consumers.

Until now, no studies were conducted on filter-feeding organisms such as jellies, whose feeding mechanisms do not permit them to distinguish between tiny fragments of plastic debris and plankton. It is now known that plastic fragments heavily impact these creatures. When broken into smaller pieces, these tiny plastic fragments accumulate non-water soluble toxicants such as PCB's, and pesticides such as DDT. Plastic acts as a sponge for such chemicals and other persistent organic pollutants, concentrating such poisons up to a million times higher than their concentration in the water. These toxic particles move up the food chain from the small invertebrates to  the fish and then return to us on our plate!

NAG CHAMPA INCENSE

“Nag Champa” is a perfume originally manufactured in the Hindu and Buddhist monasteries of India and Nepal. It is traditionally made from a sandalwood base, to which are added a variety of flower oils -including that from the flower of the Champac tree. Each monastery has its own secret formula which is revealed to no-one outside the order! The sacred tree belongs to the magnolia family and grows to about 30 metres in height. Its flower is yellow and star shaped, and as well as being the source of the perfume, also gives a yellow dye. Frequently planted in temple grounds, the wood is used for making sacred images, drums etc.  15g of incense sticks for £0.99
