Today is World Environment Day!

Here are some interesting facts on plastic pollution:

  • Only 9% of all plastic produced is recycled.
  • A whopping 2 million plastic bags are used every minute worldwide.
  • Every minute of every day a truckload of plastic is dumped into the ocean.
  • 73% of beach litter worldwide is plastic.

Everyone plays a part in beating plastic pollution, from you as a consumer, to our organisations and government bodies.

What are you going to do today to contribute to creating a cleaner, more plastic free planet?

You can find for purpose organisations at Greatest Good that contribute a circular economy to engage with and purchase from.

And you can also find more resources on solutions to plastic pollution over at UN Environment Programme @unep

It is time to #BeatPlasticPollution.
