Just Zero's new greenwashing report explores how major companies use tactics to lead consumers to believe that they are doing the right thing for the planet, while they may not be doing anything at all—except creating more pollution. Companies know we’re trying to make better choices — so they use greenwashing to trick us into thinking they’re part of the solution. 🌱 “Recycling” plastic bags that can’t be recycled 🌍 “Sustainable” fashion built on fast fashion waste 🔥 “Advanced recycling” that just burns plastic Just Zero exposes 8 major players — like Coca-Cola, Shein, and more — for greenwashing their way out of real responsibility. 👀 Learn how to spot it ✊ Demand better 📖 View the report: https://lnkd.in/gJR9a3jz #PlasticPollutes #BreakFreeFromPlastic #Greenwashing #EarthMonth #PlasticPollution

About us
The Plastic Pollution Coalition is a global, strategic alliance of individuals, organizations, and businesses working together to end plastic pollution and its toxic impacts on people, animals, and the environment. Plastic pollution is an emerging environmental problem of dramatic proportions. In every stage of its existence, plastic is toxic and creates pollution. It is a material that the Earth cannot digest, and once produced, it stays with us forever. We focus on ending our reliance on single-use and disposable plastics and one bridging like-minded activists and organizations on six continents. The Plastic Pollution Coalition is a project of Earth Island Institute in Berkeley, California, USA.

You may have heard that microplastics have been found throughout the human body, from our brain down to our reproductive organs. How do microplastics & their toxic chemicals impact human health? Join us today, Wednesday, April 16, as we explore the latest research.
🔬 Scientists recently discovered that the human brain contains the equivalent of a plastic spoon’s worth of microplastics. This alarming new research provides more evidence that plastic’s presence inside our bodies is growing, and there’s evidence that it is linked to serious health problems. But what can we do about it? Join us as we discuss the latest research on plastic in our bodies with experts and how you can protect yourself at our next webinar. #PlasticPollutes #BreakFreeFromPlastic
