The question is not whether a #circulareconomy for plastic is possible, but what we will do together to make it happen. We need to urgently scale up our efforts. We urge more businesses and governments to join us & tackle plastic pollution at the source tinyurl.com/plasticwave

This landmark report shows again the stark reality of the plastics crisis. It also shows the relative contribution of known solutions to address it .. elimination, innovation for new product delivery models including reuse, and dramatic increases in recycling are all essential.

To solve plastic pollution, we need to: (1). Eliminate the plastic we don’t need (2). Innovate at unprecedented speed and scale (3). Circulate the plastic we do need Only then we will be able to put a stop to it tinyurl.com/plasticwave #circulareconomy #BreakingThePlasticWave
