To World Leaders:

Plastic pollution is killing our oceans -- by 2050 they will have more plastic than fish. We call on you to immediately phase out single-use plastics and commit to implementation of the policies our oceans need to thrive.

End plastic pollution now!
Did you know that we humans throw away 100 *million* plastic water bottles every - single - day?! Our thoughtlessness is choking our magnificent big blue, suffocating turtles and whales.

And it’s totally needless -- massive corporations are making billions selling water that’s no different than what most of us get from our kitchen sinks!

Right now, more than half of plastic pollution comes from five countries - the Philippines, Indonesia, China, Vietnam and Thailand. Indonesia’s just committed to reduce marine litter by 70%. Now the others are under pressure to act before a global oceans summit in days.

If one million of us get behind a global call, the Head of the UN Environment Programme will announce our petition from the summit podium and work with us to pressure countries to ban single-use plastics and let oceans breathe again. Sign on.
