"Although research is still in its early stages, there are clear correlations between plastic and immune system dysfunction and a rise in chronic diseases, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and even infertility. So plastic doesn't just pollute our planet."

Every tomato has a plastic sticker! It’s better than plastic wrapping but is it necessary? @waitrose #plasticpollution @PlasticPollutes @aplastic_planet @aplastic_planet @plasticSrubbish

Not only is #plastic polluting our #oceans and our #bodies, it is also polluting our #atmosphere with over 400 metric tons of CO2 forecast for 2025.
@Bloomberg’s article shows the emissions produced by plastics everyday. #plasticpollution

The Premier says the nazi uniform he wore aged 21 was a youthful mistake.
That's hard to hear when NSW prisons are full of children as young as 10, locked up for minor offenses in a fundamentally racist system - 50% of imprisoned kids in Australia are First Nations. 🧵 #NSWPol

“In Finland, the # of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” scoop.me/housing-first-finla…

“In a monumental irony, both Julian Assange…and Edward Snowden…stand charged with the very same crimes that are likely to be brought against Mr. Trump. On both Mr. Assange and Mr. Snowden, Mr. Trump argued that they should be executed.”

The #IPCC report released yesterday is another reason to care about the crucial global #PlasticsTreaty talks currently taking place in Kenya.
We need a strong treaty adressing the whole life cycle of plastics and their contribution to the climate crisis!

ALT Earth globe trapped in a plastic bottle on a beach by the sea. Millions of people like you have come together to reject single use plastic and ask for change. Now Greenpeace and our allies call on governments and world leaders to start negotiating a strong plastics treaty that addresses the whole life cycle of plastic - from the moment oil is extracted to the moment plastic is discarded, there is no time for empty promises. Help us make this a reality. Ask world leaders to support a global plastics treaty!

Clean Up Kenya and @NarecNgo have unveiled a prototype of a 'Tower of Plastics' which we plan to build in Nairobi to raise awareness and pressure @Environment_Ke to address #PlasticPandemicKenya. This 3-storey prototype is filled with over 5000 pieces of PET plastics.

What you @CocaColaCo, call 'ambitious sustainability goals' are mere public relations gimmicks to avoid responsibility as you continue wreaking the planet with single-use plastics.
