What’s the UK government’s plastic policy? Dump it on other countries! Less than 10% of our plastic recycling is actually recycled in the UK. The rest is sent overseas where it’s often burned or dumped, fuelling health and wildlife emergencies. RT to expose. #Wasteminster 1/5

It's good to see new tech developing to take plastic out of water. It's more important that we stop putting it there. Short/single use plastic has to stop, urgently. https://t.co/IP5zXLYs0N @siansutherland @aplastic_planet @CommonSeas @sascampaigns @ICUdocX @EmmaBurlow @CommonVC

For all the talk about foreign hacking, disinformation and meddling in the US, one simple way to retaliate is by solving climate change. Moving off of fossil fuels cripples the GDP of these same countries. They would then be focused on internal chaos vs creating it abroad.

This is huge. @Loreal cuts out the plastic and takes shampoo bars to mass market. Now available in @BootsUK and coming to other stores in 2021. The bars use 80% less packaging and 70% less fossil energy. What are you waiting for? https://t.co/Sv7H2bjeCz
