Environmentalist and plastic pollution spokesperson Tim Silverwood will host a discussion and screening of the award-winning documentary Bag It at Five Dock Library on Tuesday, 15 October from 6.30pm.

The film evening is part of ‘Stop the Litter in the Bay’, a new project aiming to encourage the community to clean up after themselves when using pristine Cabarita Park.
The park is popular for picnics and barbecues on weekends and this is set to increase over summer, with the project aimed at providing education to park users about how to clean up after themselves.
The project, funded by the Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH), will target behaviour via a local media campaign ‘Don’t be a tosser’ and provide funding for minor infrastructure improvements.
