The time to #BeatPlasticPollution & #SaveOurOcean is NOW. We all have a role to play. Check out how our #SDG14 Accelerator advances regional cooperation on the ocean: bit.ly/3QDH74C #UNOC2022

Kenyans will soon pay up to Sh20,000 in fines if they do not sort the garbage from their homes into different categories before disposing. This is if President Uhuru Kenyatta assents the Sustainable Waste Management Bill, 2021. #beatplasticpollution businessdailyafrica.com/bd/economy/ken…

More than $50 billion of foreign aid finds its way in Africa, annually. But available data shows over 75% of the world’s poor live in Africa today. Is Foreign Aid compounding Africa’s problems? How much is it delivering sustainable economic growth? x.com/i/spaces/1rmxP…

When we start loving ourselves, stop complaining, change our mindset and see beyond the nose is when we will reclaim our identity. Otherwise more crybabies are being born from the so called "coming together" syndrome.

#BeatPlasticPollution Do you wana make plastic as the main ingredient of all the receipes in future ? No right ! Then Stop Using Plastic now !! #Sadhguru Sadhguru #BeatPlasticPollution

Stopping plastic pollution is one of the major concerns but with necessary awareness and action, we can stop this. Isha has been working with the UN on this since 2018, and it is a prominent step that there is now a policy in Bharat regarding this #BeatPlasticPollution

Today, production of plastic far outpaces our ability to manage it when it becomes waste. Check out WorldBank’s new immersive story on the challenges of dealing with plastic and the solutions we offer: wrld.bg/7Gzt50JMWSF #BeatPlasticPollution

The plastic crisis has deep corporate roots: The industry promotes the weakest form of the circular economy -recycling- which means production can keep going despite the reality that most items going into a recycling bin will end up being burned or dumped.theconversation.com/the-plastic-cr…

The abrupt decision to lift GMO ban essentially curtails the freedom of Kenyans to choose what they want to eat. It's time we have an inclusive participatory process to look into food security issues. Route to Food ISFAA BIBA Kenya #StopGMOs #KataaGMOs abcnews.go.com/International/…

🥤Plastic🥤 produces climate-harming emissions at every stage of its lifecycle 😱. From the moment the oil or gas 🛢used to make it is extracted from the ground 🛢️, to when it is burned in an incinerator 🔥, or degrades in a waste dump or the ocean 🌊.

1/ Plastic is a HUGE contributor to our growing #climatecrisis. So why on Earth is United Nations welcoming Coca-Cola - one of the world's largest plastic polluters - as a sponsor of the upcoming #COP27 ? Allowing a major polluter to use the event as greenwashing = a BAD look for the UN.

This #COP27, Africa demands ✔️ Social justice ✔️ Environmental justice ✔️ Polluters to pay Pass it on.

Fishers take over 100 plastic bottles to the lake daily, of which 25% don't return. In the lake, plastic debris find way into humans through the food chain. While there are various biodegradable fishing floats fishers say they cannot afford. Fredrick Mugira bit.ly/3SYEA4U

Don't believe the hype. "Compostable" plastics are largely not compostable + bring a host of other problems & emissions. Reusables are the only true solution to our plastic and climate crises. cnn.com/2022/11/03/wor…

In many cases, plastic packaging will outlast the product its wrapped around by years, or even decades. It's time to switch to reuse and refill, and #BreakFreeFromPlastic.
