In 2012, over half a million volunteers participated in a coastal cleanup, covering nearly 18,000 miles. The top 3 items they found were: cigarettes, food wrappers/containers and beverage bottles. Surprised? Check out the entire list via @fairplanet: https://t.co/5qiGa7Bwtd

Did you know every year Canadians throw away 3M tonnes of #plasticwaste? Only 9% of that is recycled so the majority of plastics end up in landfills & into our natural environment.

By using sustainable, natural straws, cutlery & food packaging, you’re helping to reduce that!

Nestle produced 1.7 million tonnes of plastics last year. That's the weight of 10,000 blue whales. By 2050 we could have more plastic in the ocean than fish.

Time to #EndPlasticPollution.

We're building a disposable world. We now have waves of waste. This needs to stop.

@ClimateReality Switching from plastic straws, cutlery and food packaging to a sustainable alternative! There's no excuse not to!

Our food containers are made out of sugarcane which means not only are they #natural & #ecofriendly but they also take less energy to make. With more people ordering take-out, sustainable alternatives are no longer just a suggestion. Let's all #maketheswitch!

In Uganda, plastic pollution has become pervasive in our environment. I became an environmental activist to be part of the people driving solutions to #EndPlasticPollution

Did you know you can #recycle cell phones, light bulbs, appliances like refrigerators and propane tanks, electronics, books and more for free at the Zero Waste Centre in #Vancouver? Yup! You can declutter and #SaveThePlanet at the same time! https://t.co/n7gG4C4EB5

We can no longer separate climate change and pandemics. “It’s all interlinked in many ways.” @GretaThunberg

Covid isn't the only crisis we face. Time to lift all boats at the same time. #ActOnClimate

Plastic pollutes and emits greenhouse gases. Fossil fuels that are made into plastic account for 14% of oil use. Continuing production means we are increasing global heat to exceed the set 1.5°c limit. #ClimateCrisis #EndPlasticPollution @EndPlasticsNow

An interesting article by International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) that discusses the impact the pandemic has had on #PlasticWaste and how that affects our drinking water.
