“Every scientific model investigating how to solve the plastic pollution crisis and the climate crisis it helps fuel has found that we need to do 3 things...”
- Nicholas Mallos at Our Ocean Greece on how we can make progress against plastic pollution ⬇️🧵
Today at Our Ocean Greece, Anna-Marie Laura announced our commitment to work with #GOWA , the Global Offshore Wind Alliance in our collective effort to ensure that all participating governments include responsible offshore wind in their nationally determined contributions (NDCs).
T-minus 1 week until #EarthDay ! The theme this year is #PlanetVsPlastics and I'm excited to be joining AAAS (live from Ottawa for #INC4 for the #PlasticsTreaty !) to answer all your questions about #PlasticPollution , #SciencePolicy , & my work with Ocean Conservancy to solve this crisis!
“We cannot avoid a climate crisis without significantly scaling-up offshore wind.”

35 years ago, the #ExxonValdez ran aground in Alaska, spilling roughly 11 million gallons of oil into our ocean and devastating marine life and Alaska Native communities.
It's time to hold Big Oil accountable.

🎉One year ago, President Biden released the first-of-its-kind Ocean Climate Action Plan, a commitment to protecting our ocean & tackling the climate crisis.
This strategy is leveraging the power of our ocean as a source of climate solutions.
Thank you for taking #OceanClimateAction . 🌊
