John, plastic pollution is choking our planet. It can be found in almost every corner of the world.

And, sadly, wildlife sometimes can't tell what it is. Or they can't avoid it.

• Sea turtles eat plastic bags, confusing them with jellyfish.

• Seabirds mistake plastic debris for food and share it with their chicks.

• And penguins—not to mention whales, dolphins, seals, birds, fish, and sea turtles, too—get fatally caught in abandoned plastic fishing nets.
  

All the plastic that ends up in nature seems like a hopeless problem, but I've got some good news.

WWF is working hard toward our vision of no plastic in nature by 2030.

Your gift today on World Oceans Day will protect nature from plastic pollution and support WWF's other global conservation work to stop deforestation, illegal fishing and other wildlife crime, and many other threats to nature.

Your support can help end plastic pollution and power our many critical conservation solutions. But we can't do it without you.

Will you help, John?

WWF's ambitious and holistic campaign to end plastic pollution brings together partners from all over the world—companies, governments, and people—to make the solutions possible.

Your donation today of $20 will support WWF’s critical mission and do a world of good!

We really need you with us, John. Together, we will protect biodiversity and solve the world's greatest environmental problems.

Every caring supporter—and every single dollar—makes a difference. Your generous gift right now will protect the many wild places and amazing species on our beautiful planet.

Thank you for caring about healthy oceans,

P.S. We are working harder than ever to protect habitats around the world, but we can't do it alone. Can I count on you today—on World Oceans Day—to make a difference for our planet? Thank you for your generosity.
