Plastic and nature

There is no planet B

It's time to step back and prevent our everyday actions that impact the planet.

Plastic pollution is everywhere like it is "On Air". You will not find a single corner of earth without plastic. It is on land, inland and in water.

There are more than 150 million metric tons of plastic in our oceans and we are releasing an additional 8 million metric tons each year in the deep sea.

This plastic impacts ocean wildlife. Sea turtles mistakenly eat plastic bags that they confuse with jellyfish. Sea birds, whales, dolphins, and other marine animals often turn up dead with stomachs full of plastic or get caught in abandoned plastic fishing nets. Even land animals are now forced to live among plastic pollution. Read more on UN Environment.

Do you know?


  • There are more micro-plastic particles in the ocean than there are stars in the Milky Way.
  • We are eating these particles through salt.
  • Microplastics are increasingly found in drinking water.
  • Plastic items can take up to 1000 years(depends on material) to decompose in landfills.
  • Plastic has formed a layer inside the land which is preventing rainwater from going down.
  • A study published in Nature Geoscience found that micro-plastic particles were blowing through the air of the verdant Pyrenees Mountains in France.
  • Another study published this year found micro-plastic contamination in U.S. groundwater.

Don't be afraid to start over. It's a chance to build something better this time.

Let's beat plastic pollution.

  • Cut back on single-use plastics
  • Stop throwing plastic in rivers
  • Use reusable water bottles
  • Avoid using micro-beads
  • Cut down period waste
  • Choose to reuse
  • Use cloth bags
  • Recycle
