Join The Movement to Stop Plastic Pollution
The world is drowning in plastics that pollute at every stage of their lifecycle.
From the health of frontline communities near plastic factories to the 8 million tons of plastic pollution ending up in our ocean each year1.
We're facing the biggest plastic pollution crisis of our times, but why is the plastic industry planning to ramp up plastic production by 40% over the next decade2?
Why are products that take minutes to consume being packaged in plastic that takes centuries to decompose?
More than 1,000 organizations and 150,000 individuals all over the world have teamed up to stop this destructive habit and now you can join the movement too.
Our goals are to:
-
Shift the perception of who’s responsible for plastic pollution towards corporations, not people
-
Hold top corporate polluters accountable for their plastic footprint
-
Facilitate real solutions: make less plastic, push for a circular, zero-waste materials economy
