The production, use and disposal of everyday materials have many negative impacts on the environment.
But it doesn't have to be this way.
The circular economy dramatically reduces pollution.

We can tackle #plastic waste and #pollution with a #circulareconomy. Watch The Circular Economy Show — where we’ll be discussing five years of the Global Commitment, a #reuse revolution, and the @UNEP INC-3 negotiations in Nairobi — to learn more: ellenmacarthurfoundation.org…

We know we can’t recycle our way out of the plastic waste and pollution crisis. It’s time for a #reuserevolution. Our latest study, developed in partnership with @SYSTEMIQ_Ltd
and @Eunomia_RandC illustrates how we can make this revolution a reality: links.emf.org/47IY4SL

The world is producing 430M metric tons of plastic pollution every year and the vast majority is not recycled or reused.
Last week, delegates met in Nairobi, Kenya for the 3rd round of negotiations for a global #PlasticsTreaty.
Here's a recap from #INC3: go.undp.org/rSTn

100,000,000 kilograms* of plastic, all gathered by hand. That’s the power of #SocialRecycling.
Thank you to our members, partners, supporters, and YOU for the milestone.
Together, we’re creating real and lasting impact.
