The global economy is not a force of nature - it is made of a million decisions. It is designed. And it can be redesigned. #circulareconomy

Our guide isn't here to tell you about the state of global plastic pollution, it's here to present solutions. For example, aluminium cans, aka six-packs, don’t need plastic rings. They can stick to each other just like that, it’s magic (and a bit of glue) ow.ly/OSSf50Cs2pI

The decision by more than 30 companies to publicly disclose their annual plastic packaging volumes in the report is an important step towards greater transparency. We encourage all companies that make and use plastics to do the same #GlobalCommitment newplasticseconomy.org
