Today YouTubers @MrBeast and @MarkRober launched the #TeamSeas campaign to remove 30M pounds of trash.
The Ocean Cleanup and @OurOcean were chosen as the non-profit partners for cleaning up trash in rivers, oceans, and beaches. Every $1 donated = 1lb of trash removed.
Over 100,000 people marched for climate justice through Glasgow. We say enough is enough. No more green washing. Let’s have a proper just transition. Let’s give the most affected people and areas the reparations they need. Let’s work equitably. Let’s prioritise people not profit!
