Because it’ s time...
It’ s everywhere from the fabrics in our clothing, the cars we drive, the devices we use, the containers that store our food and drinks... we are living in a plastic society!
Oil-based plastics use as much as 10 % of the world’ s oil supply.
Society relies heavily on this material, yet only a small fraction is actually recycled into new products despite a vast majority of these products
being used for disposable or one-time use.
Pollution is mounting and weather patterns are changing due to global warming- manufacturing is putting millions of tons of ozone depleting toxins in our atmosphere BUT so is recycling.
DID YOU KNOW?
Located off the coast of California is a floating mass of debris called the North Pacific Gyre, it’ s twice the size of Texas and comprised of predominantly plastic and styrofoam waste.
