Revolution Plastics Joins UK's Largest Waste Survey
The UK's largest investigation into household plastic waste will return from 9-15 March 2026, as researchers from the Revolution Plastics Institute at the University of Portsmouth join the campaign to help analyse results and strengthen the evidence base for action on plastic pollution.
The Big Plastic Count , led by the charity Everyday Plastic , invites households, schools, community groups and businesses across the UK to count every piece of plastic waste they throw away over one week and submit their findings online. Organisers hope the results will help inform government policy and business decisions at a time of growing concern over plastic production, waste and disposal.
This year, the Revolution Plastics Institute is supporting the campaign as an academic partner, carrying out an in-depth follow-up survey and analysing data to better understand how plastic is used, discarded and managed in UK homes.
