Can we be as plastic-free as possible this holiday season? We've killed too many animals..

Bisakah kita sebisa mungkin bebas plastik musim liburan ini? Sudah terlalu banyak hewan yang mati krn kita..

We're not keen on the term 'ghost gear' in this context - it misleadingly suggests that the fishing industry aren't directly to blame. https://t.co/3CvE2xnjxe #bycatch

[The Conversation Indonesia @ConversationIDN]

Berbeda dari negara-negara yang masyarakatnya juga berburu paus, Indonesia tidak memiliki regulasi tentang perburuan tradisional.

Recycling is not the solution to our plastics problem. It's time to REDUCE the amount of plastics being produced. Join Oceana in urging companies to offer plastic-free alternatives: https://t.co/YSluZGUUXv

Most microplastic lies 500-2000 ft below the ocean's surface, 40% is composed of the material common in single-use plastics. Let's all help make a change! https://t.co/pxoHlhhIKI #microplastic #plasticpollution @anelachoy @KakaniKatija @MBARI_News @MontereyAq

@lcagee @BoyanSlat Thanks for this. Yeah, forgot that not everyone would know what a raffia is. It's quite a common material in Indonesia.
