The final negotiations on the first global agreement to tackle plastic pollution will take place next month & I’ll be there with my @OurOcean colleagues.
But we can't combat the deluge of plastics if we don’t address #microplastics.

Big Oil MUST be held accountable for driving the plastic pollution crisis, full stop.
@OurOcean applauds @AGRobBonta for taking action. We need major change if we're going to protect our communities, wildlife & ocean from harmful plastics.
Our statement: oceanconservancy.org/news/st…
The state of California sued ExxonMobil, accusing the oil giant of misleading the public about the effectiveness of plastics recycling and contributing to the flood of bottles, bags and wrappers polluting waterways in the state and worldwide.

😡 We’re often sold plastics as the “cheap option,” but the real cost is staggering—to our ocean, climate & people.

There isn’t a simple solution or “magic pill” to solving the plastics crisis. But my colleagues @OurOcean and I are hard at work on these 3 key steps--from local to international stages--so we can protect our ocean from becoming seas of plastic.
Join us: oceanconservancy.org/action-…
How do we solve the plastics crisis? Here are 3 (not-so-easy, but straightforward) steps from @NickMallos:
1️⃣ Reduce the amount of plastics—especially single-use.
2️⃣Manage & actually recycle plastics.
3️⃣ Clean up.

"The SCOTUS decision on Chevron was never just about fish...[the fishery] was used as a Trojan Horse to attack the foundations of the public agencies that serve the American public and conserve our natural resources." - @OurOcean Fish Conservation Director Meredith Moore
Today's #SCOTUS decision jeopardizes our access to critical information about America’s fisheries, which is the exact OPPOSITE of what we need to handle the fast-growing impacts of climate change.
