Dear John,
My name is Olivia Sparks, and I’m doing an internship this summer at
Plastic Pollution Coalition (PPC) to help _FLIP THE SCRIPT ON PLASTICS_ in
popular culture and entertainment. In honor of Plastic Free July, we want
to share EXCITING UPDATES with you about our work and ask you to SUPPORT
OUR ADVOCACY EFFORTS [8] and AMPLIFY THE VOICES OF COMMUNITIES HARMED BY
PLASTIC POLLUTION.
DONATE NOW [9]
Earlier this month, the PPC team partnered with Hollywood, Health and
Society to take a group of TELEVISION WRITERS AND ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVISTS
on a Plastic Pollution Toxic Tour across Los Angeles, California [10], to
WITNESS FIRSTHAND the effects of the plastics life cycle.
Our first stop at the Inglewood Oil Field was deeply emotional for me. I
have always lived minutes away from the drilling site and across the street
from Kenneth Hahn State Recreation Area, which serves as AN ILLUSION FOR
THE DRILLING SITE by secluding it with beautiful lush greenery and florals.
I was heartbroken to realize that my beloved home and neighbors are being
exposed to a multitude of ENVIRONMENTAL TOXIC CHEMICALS AND suffer from
SEVERE HEALTH ISSUES, as a result of our proximity to the Inglewood Oil
Field.
This Toxic Tour helped to remind those in the entertainment industry that
Hollywood was built by the OIL INDUSTRY, and that it CONTINUES TO POISON
THE MOST VULNERABLE COMMUNITIES here today. OUR ATTENDEES LEFT INSPIRED,
ready to integrate what they learned into FUTURE STORYLINES.
PPC would love to host MORE EVENTS AND EXPERIENCES LIKE THIS in the future,
and WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT TO MAKE IT HAPPEN [11]. Join us and _Flip the
Script on Plastics_ this Plastic Free July by helping to FUND FUTURE TOXIC
TOURS AND OTHER ADVOCACY EFFORTS to educate entertainment professionals to
SHARE THE STORIES OF THOSE HARMED BY PLASTIC POLLUTION.
Thank you so much for your support,
[Olivia Sparks]
