PLASTIC POLLUTION

Plastics made from fossil fuels pollute every known corner of the Earth.

CLIMATE CHANGE

To mitigate the impacts of climate change, we must understand the planet's largest climate regulator: The Oceans.

BIODIVERSITY LOSS

Animals ingest plastic, mistaking it for food, leading to injuries and death.

Health Risks

Plastic pollution poses significant health risks through toxic chemical exposure and contamination of food and water sources.

The Challenge we Face...

Plastic pollution in our oceans and rivers is a critical environmental issue with far-reaching consequences. Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste enter these water bodies, resulting in significant harm to marine and freshwater ecosystems. The sources of this pollution are diverse, including single-use plastics, industrial waste, and microplastics from degraded larger items.

Key Points:

50%

Of all plastics are designed to be used only once and then thrown away.

8 Million

An estimated 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the oceans each year.

9%

Only 9% of all plastic waste ever produced has been recycled.

2050

By 2050, there will be more plastic than fish in the oceans by weight if current trends continue.

We Need to Reduce Our Plastic Production...

Most plastics are not biodegradable and persist in ecosystems, leading to pollution that harms wildlife through ingestion and entanglement, ultimately disrupting biodiversity. Furthermore, plastics can leach toxic chemicals into food and water supplies, posing significant health risks to humans. By curbing plastic production, we can mitigate these adverse effects, ensuring healthier ecosystems and safer living conditions for all species.

We Need to Effectively manage our Plastic Waste...

To prevent plastic from ending up in oceans and rivers, we must implement effective waste management strategies such as recycling, composting, and responsible disposal. Encouraging biodegradable alternatives, promoting extended producer responsibility, and educating communities are vital steps in preventing plastic pollution in our waterways.

We Need to Restore Environmental Balance Through Cleanup Initiatives...

Cleanup initiatives play a vital role in restoring environmental balance by removing plastic pollution from ecosystems. These efforts not only beautify landscapes but also protect wildlife and preserve biodiversity. Engaging communities in cleanup activities fosters environmental stewardship and raises awareness about the importance of waste reduction and proper disposal.

Our impact is recognized by:
