Dear John,

Each year, an estimated 11 million metric tons of plastic pollution winds up in oceans—that number is so large, I can't even imagine how much that is. This plastic pollution is harming wildlife, wrecking ecosystems, disrupting livelihoods for coastal communities, and threatening human health.

Over the last two years, WWF has been advocating for a global UN treaty on plastic pollution—and it's within reach, but it won't happen without public support. We've set a goal to deliver 150K names to world leaders in November—will you add your name today?

The time is NOW. Every year we wait will only increase the threat posed by plastics. If we don't act, global plastic pollution is predicted to triple by 2040, with devastating effects on our oceans.

So, John, let's not miss this chance. Take action today and demand a solution to plastic pollution.

Sincerely,
