The amazing colors of the rainforest – what a sight to behold! But wait, something seems off, take a closer look? Plastic is invading the rainforest and it gets worse every day because of inaction. From the air we breathe, to the water we drink, plastic pollution is getting worse every day because of procrastination. According to the UN, plastic pollution could more than double by 2030, unless immediate action is taken1. Government and corporate procrastination are plastic’s undercover allies in the battle against a cleaner earth. We have two things you can do now to demand action:
1. Sign the Break Free from Plastic petition supporting a global plastics treaty. 2. Participate in our plastic tracking program to keep companies accountable.
