Plastic pollution threatens the Great Lakes, our vital source of drinking water. Andrea Densham, Senior Policy Adviser for the Alliance for the Great Lakes, addresses this urgent issue. #Plasticpollution #protectthegreatlakes
Pollution from plastic microfibers is a growing threat to human health and the environment. This #WorldWaterDay , we were joined by Ocean Conservancy and IEC to discuss the problem at MSI Chicago and highlighted solutions such as microfiber filters in washing machines.
We joined Alliance for the Great Lakes & IEC to highlight the intro of a really important bill to curb microplastic pollution in Illinois.
Microfibersātiny thread-like pieces of plasticāare the #1 form of microplastic pollution. A single load of laundry can release up to 18 million microfibers!
Water is our world's lifeblood, especially here at the Great Lakes, home to 20% of Earth's fresh surface water. This World Water Day, join A4GL in our mission to protect and preserve these vital waters.
