Right now, Canada is hosting global negotiations to combat plastic pollution. Meanwhile, Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives are spewing misinformation and trying to gut plastic pollution measures from the Canadian Environmental Protection Act 🤡

As negotiators gather to reach an agreement on a landmark treaty to end plastic pollution, they must ensure it is ambitious, credible and just. We have a historic opportunity to start building a world free of plastic pollution and waste – a vital step for safeguarding our planet.

FROM PLASTIC WASTE TO LASTING PATHS! Plastic waste is one of the greatest environmental challenges of our time, but it can also become part of the solution. Instead of relying solely on concrete, discarded plastics can be recycled and combined with sand or other aggregates to produce durable composite slabs for walkways, pavements, and selected drain covers. This innovative approach not only reduces plastic pollution but also lowers the demand for cement, cuts carbon emissions, and promotes a circular economy where waste is transformed into valuable infrastructure. By converting plastic waste into long-lasting construction materials, we can create cleaner communities, protect the environment, and demonstrate that what was once considered waste can become a resource for sustainable development. ♻️🌍

Over 1 million marine organisms are killed each year due to plastic pollution in the ocean. It's time to end plastic pollution. There is no planet B. Use less, buy less, waste less. #ActOnClimate #climate #PlasticsTreaty

We made this video a couple of years ago and I think it's still the best summary of how ocean plastic pollution works. Key points: - <0.1% of plastic waste actually makes it to the ocean. Ocean plastic pollution is a leakage problem. - 1% of rivers contribute roughly 80% of plastic inflow. - Most of these rivers are in coastal cities in middle-income countries, where people now have enough wealth but no adequate waste collection infrastructure. - High-income countries barely contribute to the problem. OECD countries consume 1/3 of all plastic but are responsible for <0.5% of ocean inflow. If you live in a rich country and don’t litter, your contribution to the problem is basically 0. - Nearshore and offshore plastic pollution are very different. Nearshore plastic pollution mostly originates from rivers and is not very persistent; after leaving river mouths, plastic tends to drift around for weeks to months before washing up on a coastline. Plastic in the offshore gyres mostly originates from the fishing industry and is very persistent; it is trapped indefinitely because there are hardly any coastlines in these currents to ‘catch’ this waste. This is why our catch from our Interceptors and our ocean cleanup system looks totally different.

♻️ Turning Pollution Into Possibility! 🌍 Plastic waste is one of the major contributors to pollution, clogging our streets, drains, and waterways. But what if we stopped seeing waste as useless—and started seeing it as a resource? In this new episode, the Buzstopboys step up to turn plastic waste into a hexagon block! 🔥 It’s a simple reminder that education, creativity, and action can help us tackle pollution and build a cleaner, more sustainable future. Don’t just throw it away. Rethink it. Reuse it. Turn waste

Plastic on the roads ❌ Plastic roads ✅ See how we are using recycled plastic to build strong roads in Assam! In Barpeta, officials have built an entire stretch of road mixing plastic with bitumen, adding strength and reducing plastic pollution.

Only 10% of Nigeria’s 2.5 million tons of annual plastic waste gets recycled. The rest? It clogs our drainage systems, pollutes our environment and threatens our health. But young innovators like Victoria Francis are changing that, starting from the streets of Akwa Ibom. Through Plastic Cultured, she and her team are turning collected waste into fuel, mattresses and plastic bins. Their innovation is about more than just recycling; it’s about creating jobs, protecting the environment and building cleaner communities for residents and tourists alike. Thanks to the Young Africa Innovates Programme, Victoria now has the support, mentorship and tools to scale her idea and push for a zero plastic waste culture across Nigeria. In partnership with the Mastercard Foundation, we’re empowering atypical and underrepresented innovators especially young women and community-based change makers to build solutions that work.
