Did you know that 35-40% of all plastic products produced globally are single-use?
This % is even higher in the #healthcare sector
This is why we are calling for a Global Plastics Treaty that prioritizes health & with no blanket exemptions for the sector

With this new national target, we and our health care partners are ready to take the baton of U.S. climate leadership by reducing emissions and building a clean energy economy that protects our health and builds resilient health care and communities.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Today, I'm building on my Administration's historic climate record by setting an ambitious new goal to cut greenhouse gas emissions by more than 60% by 2035.

We're the United States. Together, I know we can do this.
