(1/3) In recent years, the world's largest brands have made headlines with promises to reduce plastic usage. Hundreds of companies signed the Global Commitment, pledging to make 100% of packaging reusable, recyclable, or compostable by 2025. Was this a load of greenwashing?

Waiting for that gavel moment and looking fresh at #UNEA5 💅 Honestly I can't imagine a better group to do all nighters and snack runs and late night whiskey debriefs with. We are all rooting for the #PlasticsTreaty resolution to be adopted 🤞 – at Nairobi, Kenya

Such a powerful video. We need a solution that matches the scale of the plastic crisis. A global #PlasticsTreaty is that solution. Help us make this a reality 👉 greenpeace.org/PlasticsTreat… #BreakFreeFromPlastic #UNEA

To be effective a global #PlasticsTreaty should: 🌱Be legally-binding; 🌱Address the full life cycle of plastics, 🌱Employ a start-and-strengthen approach, & 🌱Put in place clear provisions for coordinating actions with other instruments & between parties & non-parties. #UNEA5

These are plastic "nurdles." I keep a jar of them on my desk. Funny name. Very scary for our environment and public health. Today, I'm introducing a bill to stop big corporations from dumping them into our oceans and waterways.
