An estimated 8 million metric tons or more of plastic enter the ocean annually, putting wildlife at risk for disease, entanglement, choking, and even death. Youth artist Joyce Wang, @fromthebowseat highlights the plastic pollution crisis at sea. 🐙 🌊⁠ 🪸 #PlasticPollutes

We cannot recycle our way out of the plastic pollution crisis. 🚫 ♻️ #PlasticPollutes ow.ly/8Uko50Pr2GW

Over-emphasizing recycling is a problem

A new study finds that the first two “Rs,” reduce and reuse, are getting the short shrift, undermining a more sustainable waste management system.

We need to shift our culture away from one that normalizes disposability, injustice, and pollution to one that celebrates and protects people & wildlife, and values sustainability and responsible stewardship of Earth. 💚 🌎️ #PlasticPollutes #BreakFreeFromPlastic

Plastic leaves a toxic trail at every stage of its existence. @PlasticPollutes & @HollywdHealth took a group of TV writers on a #ToxicTour to learn about the harmful effects of #plastic. 🏭 The tour helped inspire attendees to #FlipTheScriptOnPlastics. bit.ly/plastictoxictour

The Flip the Script on Plastics Toxic Tour

Recapping a “Toxic Tour” of fossil fuel and plastic pollution sites across Los Angeles, California, held for television and film writers.

Most people want to die at home but research shows death on TV is highly medicalized. We need to see a different story about care at the end of life. @endwell @LearCenter @ShoshUMD @HollywdHealth #ATXTVs12 #caregiving #culturechange
