Environmentally friendly bunting:
A team preparing Glasgow businesses for the COP26 sent out plastic-wrapped ‘environmentally friendly’ bunting. The team at Glasgow Ready distributed the packs to 155 businesses but, has now been forced to admit that the plastic used to wrap the bunting for delivery “wasn’t our intention.”
It comes as Glasgow prepares to host world leaders for a conference aimed at addressing the climate crisis. The bunting was sent with a letter encouraging businesses to use the “environmentally-friendly branding pack” to decorate their premises in support, according to our sister publication Glasgow Live.
To show their support for the COP26 summit. In which the team is creating an eco-friendly branding pack for the community to use to decorate the venue.
It would be pleasing if the community could put this up at the earliest convenience. However, the bunting is wrapping up in plastic bags for delivery which a COP26 official admits “wasn’t our intention”. The advice to businesses concerned about environmental issues is to recycle the bags at major supermarkets.
