ARE YOU TO BLAME FOR PLASTIC POLLUTION?

[7]

Dear John,

Big Plastic is feeling the heat and wants the public to believe that
plastic pollution is _your_ fault. If only you would recycle more. If only
your community could manage all _your_ trash.

We’re not falling for it! Plastic pollution is not your fault. PLASTIC
RECYCLING IS A _MYTH_. The truth is that plastic was never made to be
recycled. Only 9% of all of the plastic ever made has been “recycled.”
Even the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency includes downcycling,
shipping overseas, and incineration in their definition of “recycling.”
PLASTIC POLLUTION IS A GLOBAL CRISIS AND WITH YOUR SUPPORT WE CAN TURN THE
TIDE. All gifts received by December 31st will be DOUBLED!

Donate Now & Double Your Gift [8]

Plastic Pollution Coalition reduces plastic production and consumption by
educating and connecting people and groups to advocate for a more just,
equitable world free of plastic pollution and its toxic impacts.

We’re doing this by advocating for:

* common sense policies proposed in the U.S. federal Break Free from
Plastic Pollution Act, like a National Bottle Bill, and State Extended
Producer Responsibility bills,

* the U.S. National Park Service to stop selling plastic bottled water and
other single-use plastics in our parks,

* the passage of the California Recycling and Plastic Pollution Reduction
Act, a first-in-the-nation law that could effectively end certain major
sources of plastic pollution, appearing on the November 2022 ballot, and

* the U.S. to lead on a Global Plastics Treaty.

Given the gridlock in Congress, there is a need to focus more at the State
and global level. BUT TO DO ALL OF THIS, WE NEED YOUR HELP.
