Each reusable bag can eliminate hundreds (if not thousands) of plastic bags. Invest in a reusable bag today and start making a difference. #plasticfree

Most plastic bags (and other plastics, for that matter) contain "slip agents" to reduce the friction in the material. And what are slip agents made from? Mainly animal fat. #plasticfree

Balloon strings entangled this critically endangered juvenile Kemp's ridley #seaturtle in Surfside. Thanks to our sea turtle nest patrol responder for finding this turtle and contacting NOAA.

Just in case you had some doubt about the enormous scale of our single-use plastic problem, this is the River Don in Yorkshire, England after the recent flood. #plasticfree

Europe brought in laws mandating that consumers could leave packaging at place of purchase and that retailers must recycle it. Significant decrease of packaging materials resulted. Let's follow in their footsteps. #plasticfree

Plastic pollution: it's not just bags at the checkout, what about the plastic clogging supermarket aisles? (Supermarkets need to start acting responsibly, or be forced to start acting responsibly #auspol #springst #plasticpollution #plasticfree #recycling) mobile.abc.net.au/news/2018-…

Did you know #plastic straws have a life span of roughly 10 minutes? Make the switch from #singleuseplastic and get a reusable, eco-friendly straw instead!

Every half second, this much plastic makes it into the world’s oceans. #plasticfree #plasticpollution
The highest recycling rates are in Europe (30%) and China (25%) whereas the United States has had a relatively dismal rate of 9% since 2012. #plasticfree
Even so, only 9% of all the plastics that have ever been produced have been recycled and only 10% of that amount (less than 1%) has been recycled more than once. #plasticfree
If you must use a plastic bottle, reuse it as many times as possible, and don't forget to ♻️ #plasticfree
