Loved this eye-opening @GreenpeaceUK film that challenges everything we thought we knew about the beauty brand @dove, an affiliate brand of @unilever.

FINALLY! Some orgs have identified the corporations behind (some of) #Asia's pollution & named the top 10 sachet polluters from India, Indonesia, the Philippines & Vietnam.
Little surprise to see @Unilever top the regional list! π

Why aren't we surprised?
Dove is a subsidiary of Unilever, and for years, there has been a jaw-dropping gap between their eco-friendly rhetoric and its actual actions, especially when it comes to problematic formats like sachets.

@Unilever Read @Greenpeace's report on how Unilever's single-use sachets affect low-income communities, and the gap between what they say versus what they do:

#QuitSachets#UniquelyUnilever
The Myth: @Unilever claims to do 'more good for our planet and our society β not just less harm.'
The Reality: Unilever is the BIGGEST corporate seller of sachets, and is predicted to sell over 53 BILLION sachets in 2023 β that's 1,700 SACHETS PER SECOND!
@Unilever ...and take meaningful steps towards sustainability.
This isn't just a global brand, this is a brand with real power to make a difference, if only they #QuitSachets!

π Do these logos look familiar? π
With over 400+ brands worldwide, Unilever has products across sectors of beauty, well-being, personal care, home care, and nutrition.
These logos represent brands under Unilever that sell & heavily market sachet products across Asia-Pacific.
This is Unilever's SACHET FOOTPRINT in #Indonesia.
Ironic, when you realise that Unilever touts its mission to create a better planet and society, and claims to be a 'sustainable' business.
It's important for @Unilever to truly examine the impact of their sachet economy...
But will Unilever invest in effective solutions and #QuitSachets?

π£ It isn't about washing dirty linen in public - it is well known that Unilever's detergent sachets like Breeze are just as tough on the planet, as they are on stains! π
π Detergent sachets end up in landfills, in waterways, or get sent to cement kilns for incineration.
There is a better way to fight germs!
π± Refillable or reusable options for bulk household products like detergents exist, and are very consumer friendly, as everyone can buy exactly how much they need! It is just about changing the way big corporations do business.
