Theme: Planet vs. Plastics
This year’s theme is “Planet vs. Plastics.” It highlights the growing problem of plastic pollution and calls for action to reduce plastic waste.
- EARTHDAY.ORG is unwavering in its commitment to end plastics for the sake of human and planetary health. The goal is a 60% reduction in plastic production by 2040.
- Why this focus? Plastics pose a danger to humanity and all living creatures, disrupting the delicate balance of life on Earth. We demand change: rapid phase-out of single-use plastics, a strong UN Treaty on Plastic Pollution, and an end to fast fashion.
- Innovative solutions are key. We invest in technologies and materials to build a plastic-free world.
- Additionally, the Babies vs. Plastics report sheds light on the impacts of microplastics on the health of young babies and children.
