The Junction Creek Stewardship Committee and Plastic-Free Greater Sudbury are seeking public input to better understanding public awareness and concern for plastic waste. 

The Junction Creek Stewardship Committee and Plastic-Free Greater Sudbury are seeking public input to better understanding public awareness and concern for plastic waste. 

The information will be used to develop a comprehensive plastic waste report which will guide decision making and community programs to address plastic waste in Greater Sudbury’s waterways.

Plastic waste has been an increasing concern for the health of Greater Sudbury’s waterways, wildlife and community, say the groups.

In addition to large amounts of plastic litter being removed during creek clean-ups, studies have found plastic in the stomachs of fish and microplastics in Junction Creek.

The groups are asking Sudburians to complete a quick questionnaire by March 1.  An English and French version of the Polluted Waters questionnaire can be found on the Junction Creek Stewardship Committee’s website.
