THE ISSUE OF PLASTIC POLLUTION IS
BLACK AND WHITE.
Over half of the sea turtle population, 90% of seabirds (including penguins), and 100,000 marine mammals (including sea lions) yearly have ingested plastic. This has led to serious injuries, internal blockages, and even death.
And they’re not the only ones at risk.
Plastic pollutes at every stage of its life cycle — from extraction to production, consumption to disposal. It is the silent killer that fuels the climate crisis, accelerates social injustice, destroys biodiversity, and harms people’s health.
Plastic is everywhere — including our bodies. Microplastics are found in the air we breathe and the food we eat, and even stay in our blood, tissues, and organs.
With up to 12 million metric tons of plastic entering our oceans annually, the call for a strong global plastics treaty to limit its production and use has never been more urgent.
Now’s the time to support the cause and protect all life on earth.
