On these non-plastic bottle cut-outs, members of the First Amlwch Guides have each written to me to share their plastic promises. They include pledges to use metal or paper straws, to reuse plastic bottles, and to hold on to plastic until they find a recycling bin. Others will be buying food in non-plastic containers, ditching cling film, or, and I quote, 'Telling my mum not to buy plastic bags.' They're asking us as AMs to join them in being planet protectors, by making plastic promises of our own.

Today, I'll be sharing my promises on social media. I'll pledge to always try to recycle well and to continue to support campaigners for a deposit-return scheme—something the Girl Guides agree is a very good idea. And I and the Amlwch Guides invite all of you to make your own plastic promises by using the hashtags #PlasticPromise or #AddewidPlastig.
