May has called on commonwealth countries to join in the fight against plastic pollution. She cited the decision by the British government to end the sale of plastic straws, drink stirrers and plastic-stemmed cotton buds.
May urged Commonwealth countries to join a newly-formed Clean Oceans Alliance and take action, with bans on microbeads, a commitment to cutting down on single use plastic bags, or other steps to eliminate avoidable plastic waste.
