We already know that plastics are driving us into global health and climate crises. @WHCEQ we don't need more research, what we need is 🇺🇸 leadership & action.

🍻 Cheers to science, which—against all odds —always finds its way through! 🍻 And cheers to all who carry it, as well as those who open doors for them 👏🏽 #PlasticsTreaty

Lie, after lie, after lie.

“I must call out the flood of fossil fuel expansion we are seeing in some of the world’s wealthiest countries, in signing such a surge of new oil and gas licenses, they are signing away our future. Countries must phase out fossil fuels – fast & fairly.” — António Guterres

'Carbon Capture' is the #FossilFuel industry's attempt to rebrand ‘enhanced oil recovery’ as a climate solution. The vast majority of carbon 'captured' will go towards extracting more oil. Read more in this fabulous piece by @amywestervelt bit.ly/3zZJWc9

There are nearly 15,000 "forever chemicals" compounds. This 🧵 is a great roundup of the latest news around the super toxic chemicals known as PFAS. 👇

This Financial Times article makes clear: to negotiate a #PlasticsTreaty that fails to reduce plastic production is to sacrifice human health. With INC-5 just months away, the US must show courage by publicly crystalizing its support for plastic production reduction. ft.com/content/3ac9d4…

Plastics, pesticides, and fertilizers are poisoning us....and driving climate change. As we transition towards renewable energy, the fossil fuel industry is banking on #petrochemical growth. Proud to have worked on this report detailing why they must be stopped. 🛑

On the heels of the hottest summer on record, the US is poised for a #petrochemical buildout that would add more emissions than all US commercial aviation. Barnaby Pace and I wrote a piece on why this is a mistake we can't afford. commondreams.org/opinion/us-pet…

Tell us how we are “too disruptive.” Tell us how we “cause too much chaos.” Tell us. Tell us. TELL US!!!!

Did a bunch of digging and I think I found the people who are controlling the weather and making all these hurricanes worse

1/ Petrochemicals, including plastics & fertilizers, are fueling the climate crisis & threatening human health. Our report reveals the mounting risks of investing in this toxic industry. Continuing to finance this sector could lead to billions in stranded assets. 💸🌍

For those of you who haven't been keeping a list of all the wild places microplastics are showing up, Emily Atkin has. Don't miss this must read complete with dolphins, babies, sperm, and the #PlasticsTreaty 🐬🍆💦👶🏽

Louisiana has always been a bellwether when it comes to the petrochemical industry. This report should serve as a 🚩big red flag🚩that investing in plastics and petrochemicals is not just reckless — it's bad business.

Plastic pollution is all around us and even inside us – from our seas to our blood & our brains. Next month, United Nations member countries will have the chance to agree on a global treaty to end plastic pollution – once & for all. An ambitious, credible & just agreement is the only way.

Happy reading 🤓 see you in Busan 🇰🇷 #PlasticsTreaty #INC5

Friends, The Associated Press is hiring an Oceans & Climate Reporter. Can't wait to work with whoever lands this. careers.ap.org/job/Los-Angele…

The world cannot afford a weak or voluntary treaty that prioritizes industry interests over human and planetary health, write @andresdelcas.bsky.social and Lindsey Jurca Durland of Center for International Environmental Law. commondreams.org/opinion/world-…

🚨Observer access at #INC5 has been severely limited due to inadequate room capacity, jeopardizing transparency & accountability of #PlasticsTreaty negotiations. UN Environment Programme & South Korea must act now to ensure inclusive, meaningful participation for all. bit.ly/4g3GbSV

🎤 Mic drop moment from Juan Carlos Monterrey got us fired up as we step into the final hours of #PlasticsTreaty negotiations!
