A garbage truck of plastic every second by 2040.

Microplastics in our lungs, blood and even brains.

This is what happens when production keeps rising unchecked.

The world need a strong #PlasticsTreaty that cuts plastic at the source and protects people, not petrochemical profits.

Despite some progress, misleading claims like 'made of 100% recycled plastic' & '100% recyclable' persist on many plastic products🧵

Not just another environmental crisis

“The world really has to wake up and do something about chemical pollution,” says Philip Landrigan, pediatrician and professor at Boston College

We owe it to future generations: stricter regulation, safer alternatives, and full transparency

#ChemicalPollution

Industry sold a myth while plastic production kept rising.

We need governments to cut plastic at the source and secure a strong #PlasticsTreaty that puts people and planet over profits.

Ever wondered why no one talks about the hole in the ozone layer anymore?

It's because we fixed it.

Scientists provided the data, governments implemented policies, and people came together to take global collective action.

It can be done.

Now we need to do the same for methane emissions.
