About Us

Who are Little Plastic Footprint? 

We are a family with two young children and a golden retriever living in Calgary, Alberta. We moved here in 2012 from the UK and immediately loved the outdoor lifestyle and being so close to the Rocky mountains.

We started our blog back in 2018 after watching the documentary Plastic Ocean and being horrified by the destruction plastic is causing to wildlife and the environment. We realised that even though we recycled, composted and took our own bags to buy groceries, we were not doing enough, not even close!

We started blogging about our journey to reduce plastic waste as we wanted to help raise awareness, even if just to a single person! We've been blown away by the number of amazing responses from people, and it has inspired us to do more ourselves! We made the decision to open an online store in June 2019 and have committed to donating a minimum of 10% of all profits to charity.
