Want to make a difference with your Lenten discipline? Consider giving up plastic for Lent. This article gives some compelling reasons, including these facts: “25% of plastic produced globally is packaging. Just look at what you had for lunch. Even if it didn’t come in a packet, it still probably had a plastic film. Only 14% of plastic is recycled and by 2050, there will be more plastic than fish in the sea.” (Photo: Kate Ter Haar, Creative Commons)
