Dear John,

It’s one week till #GivingTuesday! Will you join our #GivingTuesday challenge by making a gift to create a world free of plastic pollution?

As an avid home cook, I think about how I can reduce my plastic footprint on a daily basis. Instead of buying vegetables in plastic bags, I try to shop mainly at local farmers' markets, and put everything directly into my own beautiful, reusable, sturdy basket.  Just by changing where and how I buy my produce, I am helping reduce my plastic footprint.

I get great new ideas everyday from the Plastic Pollution Coalition community, discovering more innovative, reusable solutions, and further cutting out plastic waste from my life.

Just imagine our collective impact if we all used reusable masks, coffee cups, water bottles, grocery bags, take out containers, and, for women, reusable menstrual cups. Think about how much plastic can we keep from choking fish and turtles in our rivers and in our oceans.

Please make a #GivingTuesday gift, so we can continue to educate, connect, and advocate to create a more just, equitable world free of plastic pollution, and its toxic impacts!

Thank YOU for joining me and others around the world to create a single-use plastic free planet.

With gratitude,

Roshani Kothari
