We are proud to be apart of progress: https://t.co/AmbhlOeyLO there is much to be done, but it's a step in the right direction! #BreakFreeFromPlastic #PlasticsBan

[Sierra Club Canada Fdn @SierraClubCan]

We are happy to see that pressure from the public, including Sierra Club Canada members who sent countless messages to the government, has resulted in this ban also being applied to the export of these products.

[Marsha Doucette @marshadoucette]

Here’s the plan 👇

✅ 2022: ban on the manufacture and import of these single use plastics
✅ 2023: ban on the sale
✅ 2025: ban on the export

Together these actions will eliminate more than 1.3 MILLION tonnes of plastic waste!

Enough fish to feed 33 million people is being taken from West African waters to be used as fishmeal in agriculture and aquaculture around the world.

This is devastating local communities in the area! Their voices must be heard.

[Parley @parleyforoceans]

A global surplus of oil and demand for renewable energy is now driving #fossilfuel companies to seek out new sources of demand. Some see plastic as their best bet.

This month, we’re getting into plastics and #climatechange in our #ParleyAIR report 👉https://t.co/YkVL2sbXUV
