Interesting Case Studies

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 17 June 2019

Verified Purchase

I have read a lot of books on plastic but this is the only one I have come across aimed at what I can do to effect change in my business. The books starts by setting the scene, introduces some core business principles for effective change management and finishes with some interesting case studies that show how we, as individuals, can really make a difference. Whether it's a small business or a national one, there are examples and ideas, tips and techniques, that can all be replicated. I would recommend this book to anyone who has made changes at home but now wants to influence change on a larger scale...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 1 November 2019

Having read many books on the environment and steps that people can take to reduce their consumption, I was so pleased to find a book that can target a business, rather than an individual. I would recommend to anyone within a business that wants practical guidance and advice on how to reduce plastic consumption. Great job!!!

Every CEO and HR director of all companies whether large, SME or small should read this book and act on the brilliant advice it offers. Amanda Keetley has obviously done a huge amount of research and clear knows what she is talking about. The book is packed with ideas and strategies that can be readily adopted by any organisation.

Start Your Plastic Reduction Journey Here

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 24 February 2020

Verified Purchase

My partner and I were at the supermarket today. We are trying to do what we can, however small our contribution is, to reduce our plastic usage. It’s a journey, but by looking at other people at the check out, we are already a long way down the track of plastic reduction.

So why have so many people not yet “got” the fact that the world does not have a limitless amount of resource and we cannot continue to turn these natural resources into products we just throw away.

What we all need is to be educated, so we can make choices on what we buy and who we buy it from. As do suppliers and supermarkets. The more of us that insist on a plastic free world and the more companies that insist on a plastic free world will put pressure down the supply chain.

“Plastic Game Changer” is a great place to start that education for all of us. Easy to read, short sharp and to the point. If, like us, you want to reduce the amount of plastic you use and the amount of waste we create, this book is a great place to start.
