Almost every industry produces some form of plastic waste but few step forward to be part of the solution. @purebrewing is an amazing company that has chosen to take the lead on helping steward the environment through a program called #poundsforpints. In 2020 they have partnered with with @plasticbank and will help remove over 67,000 pounds of oceanbound plastic and alleviate poverty at the same time.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ How will we do it? It’s simple: #poundsforpints. A portion of the sale of every pint of Murklands (made in California) will fund the collection of ocean-bound plastic by those living in poverty. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #pureproject #plasticbank #poundsforpints #onepercentfortheplanet #beonepercentbetter #mybeerourplanet #socialplastic #beatplasticpollution ⁣#ecofriendly #plasticfree #recycling #plasticpollution #saveourseas #marinedebris #sustainability #poverty #education #socialgood⁣⠀ #plasticpollutes #plastic #savetheocean #plasticocean https://www.instagram.com/p/B6OVww0HstT/?igshid=z0ru8wl45qv5

Repost from the amazing @greenranger14. Thank you for using your voice to help change the world! Going up against a garbage truck’s worth of plastic is no joke! 😅 Seeing that in the ocean is unacceptable. Excited to be a part of the @natrevewellness family, the world’s first plastic-neutral & carbon neutral wellness company, who share a commitment with me to keeping our environment and oceans the way they should be. 🌊🌏♻️ #TeamNatreve https://www.instagram.com/p/B5vwyBQnW33/?igshid=1cib96j0186k4

Travelling increases dramatically in the summer and results in a surge of plastic waste. Be conscious of your footprint on the earth and tread lightly.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #plasticbank #socialplastic #plasticneutral #beatplasticpollution ⁣#ecofriendly #plasticfree #recycling #plasticpollution #saveourseas #marinedebris #sustainability #education #socialgood⁣⠀#plasticpollutes #plastic #savetheocean #plasticocean #saveouroceans #oceanconservation #marineconservation #breakfreefromplastic⁠⠀⁠⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/B0lebgZno59/?igshid=23d6qxh8kkc9

The average person creates 84 kg of plastic waste per year. Your Plastic Neutral contribution, starting at only $44 USD per year, ensures the recovery of an equivalent or greater amount of ocean-bound plastic within the Social Plastic Ecosystem.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Become an Ocean Hero or Ocean Champion to recover even more plastic and help build communities in need around the world.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #plasticbank #socialplastic #plasticneutral #beatplasticpollution ⁣#ecofriendly #plasticfree #recycling #plasticpollution #saveourseas #marinedebris #sustainability #education #socialgood⁣⠀#plasticpollutes #plastic #savetheocean #plasticocean #saveouroceans #oceanconservation #marineconservation #breakfreefromplastic⁠⠀ https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz-ohVzHcQp/?igshid=jx0k9t07b8vi

We must engage and educate people of all ages on the issue of plastic pollution and the impact it has on our environment. In Haiti, Indonesia and the Philippines our amazing staff work extra hard at teaching their communities how to do better. These photos from the Philippines show how fun learning can be!⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ .⠀⠀ #plasticbank #socialplastic #beatplasticpollution ⁣#ecofriendly #plasticfree #recycling #plasticpollution #saveourseas #marinedebris #sustainability #poverty #education #socialgood⁣⠀ #plasticpollutes #plastic #savetheocean #plasticocean ⠀⠀ (at Manila, Philippines) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxxHpl1nOUx/?igshid=h4y0kztlryf6

Try this: Write a list of every piece of plastic you touch in a day.

I did it. I stopped counting at 56 items.

Plastic is to our time what wood was for millennia. But unlike wood, most plastic doesn’t go away. It ends up as trash in streets, rivers, lakes and oceans. It breaks down into microplastic — particles a tenth of an inch or smaller — and gets into our food and water. The health effects are largely unknown.

News stories feature dead whales and turtles with stomachs full of plastic. Activists built a huge floating net to collect it (which recently failed). Concerned citizens clean up beaches.

But that’s not helping much. Eight million tons of plastic wash into oceans every year.

What’s the alternative? Is it feasible to persuade the wealthiest, most profitable corporations in the world to completely change the way they make plastic and package consumer goods?

There’s a group of people in a very unlikely place who are aiming to do just that. Their story starts in 2001, in Southeast Asia.
