This quote made me cry.
I was just talking to a friend , and his daughter was having anxiety over the #ClimateEmergency because of the fires.
We are grieving for different things all at once, each unique to everyone. It's okay to cry.

Monday is #WorldEnvironmentDay!

Speak up for a better future.

Join millions around the globe in calling for urgent action to #BeatPlasticPollution & protect our common future. https://t.co/K653woQ6gy via @UNEP

Every day, the equivalent of over 2,000 garbage trucks full of plastic is dumped into our oceans, rivers & lakes.

This #WorldEnvironmentDay is a call to #BeatPlasticPollution.

We must work as one to break our addiction to plastic, champion zero waste & build a circular economy.
