#WE_THE_PEOPLE CALLING FOR #MANDITORY #EPA INVESTIGATION!

The retail giant says it generated 214 million pounds of plastic waste last year. An advocacy group says it produced three times as much.

#Plastic_packaging_waste from the online retail giant Amazon ballooned to 709 million pounds globally in 2021 — equivalent to the weight of some 70,000 killer whales — according to a new report published Thursday by the nonprofit Oceana. That’s an 18 percent increase over Oceana’s estimate of Amazon’s plastic packaging for 2020, indicating a growing problem that environmental advocates — and even Amazon’s own shareholders — say the company is doing too little to address.

Memory Lane | The #World Just Took a #Major_Step To Curb #Plastic_Pollution | But the #USA_Refused to Join Effort | Nearly every country in the world #except the #United_States took a historic step to curb plastic waste last week, May 16, 2019 when more than 180 nations agreed to add plastic to the #Basel_Convention, a #treaty that #regulates the movement of #hazardous_materials between countries.

Despite this, the United States will still be affected by the agreement, because #countries will be able to #block the #dumping of mixed or #un_recyclable_plastic wastes from other nations. The amended treaty will make it much more difficult for #wealthy_countries to send their plastic #waste to #poorer_nations by #prohibiting countries from #exporting plastic waste that is not ready for recycling.

#Recycling_MYTH: Less than 10% of all wasted plastics in the world are actually being recycled.

Most people don't realize that Plastics are made from #Fossil_Fuels (eg. Natural gas petroleum products).

#Texaco, #Chevron_Mobile

Resin Manufacturers: #Dow, #Dupont, #3M

#HAWAII: "Imagine my surprise when every time you take a Swim in the #Ocean your swimming with #GARBAGE!?"

Our Next Big Global Crisis | #Plastic_Pollution | #Single_Use_Plastics |

18 Billion Pounds of #Plastic_waste flows into our #Oceans every year according to #National_Geopgraphic.

Some estimate that by 2050 there will be as much plastic in the Ocean as there are #Fish_in_the_Sea!?

#Recycling_MYTH: Less than 10% of all wasted plastics in the world are actually being recycled.

"Fish ingest plastics and we eat fish. We have no idea that effect will take on the human body.. long term effects might lead to more #Cancer.. we just dont know.."

Most people don't realize that Plastics are made from #Fossil_Fuels (eg. Natural gas petroleum products | #Fracking??!!).

#BOYCOTT!
