Supermarket giant Morrisons has followed in the footsteps of Tesco and Co-Op with a storewide ban ahead of Christmas. The ban will affect all Christmas shoppers.
Morrisons has banned plastic packaging from its Christmas gift wrap and accessory ranges - removing over 3.1 tonnes of plastic shrink wrap from its wrapping paper alone.
This is in addition to the removal of glitter and plastic from paper wrap, crackers and cards in previous years, which has reduced plastic in its range by over 150 tonnes over the past three years.
