Climate change is costly to families, communities, and governments.

If we do nothing, the cost to global GDP would be $178 trillion.

If we hit net-zero by 2050, it will create $43 trillion in added GDP globally.

That’s a $220 trillion swing.

The fossil fuel industry has a strategy to continue profiting from climate destruction, even during the clean energy transition.

That strategy is PLASTICS

So I sent Arielle Samuelson to visit one community at the center of it:

If you ever raise an issue with rampant pollution from the plastic industry, this is the first argument you’ll get back. β€œYou must accept this thing making people sick, because a very small portion of it also makes people healthy!” Just wild stuff.
