#BestPractice Who would have thought that plastics could be recycled into clothes? @GStarRAW +@Pharrell did exactly that. Their collection used #recycled plastic from beaches and saved sea life from over 2million #plastic containers #animalwelfare #FridaysForFuture #oceanplastic

No matter what happens with #Brexit, things need to change fast to protect the ocean. Can you sign the #GenerationSea petition? UK must become oceans protection world leader, fast. sas.org.uk/petition/AddYourN…
Plastic pollution is not only affecting our lifes. It‘s even a bigger threat for the animals around the world. Unfortunately, a lot of people are not fully aware of this!
The cases of animals caught in plastic has been rising in Warwickshire for three years, the RSPCA reveals. Last year, there were 12 cases of animals caught in plastic compared with none three years earlier. The shocking rise in plastic litter is a growing threat to animals 💔

You are right! 104 MILLION coffee cups per year could be reduced and avoided to end up with animals. Why not think about bringing a reusable coffee cup next time? Did you know, that many companies even offer discounts if you do? 💰 #CarryTheCup #PassOnPlastic #TakeAction #Coffee
