Exchange Exemplar: Enough with the plastic, already

Author Will McCallum

By all rights, the only things you expect to see in Antarctica are ice and penguins. Will McCallum got to visit though, and he saw plastic, too.

McCallum is a Greenpeace activist, so he's already determined to get people to take better care of the planet.

He gives clear steps on how in his book How to Give Up Plastic: A Guide to Changing the World, One Plastic Bottle at a Time.

The primary focus is on single-use plastics, still a big concern two years after this interview.
