1.9 BILLION beverage bottles end up in landfill, incinerated or in the environment each year. And yet – they are NOT included in Canada's plastic ban.

It's time to change that.

Nice! Yesterday was the first ever #zerowasteday - in case you missed it too, here's the UN's pitch: https://www.unep.org/events/un-day/international-day-zero-waste-2023 #march30 #waste #pollution #climate #zerowaste

#ZeroWasteDay reminder: we’ll never hit #ZeroWaste unless we face up to the reality of overconsumption.
Overfishing ➡️ discarded fishing nets
Endless shipping ➡️ container & #nurdle loss
We have solutions: #CleanShipping & #LowImpactFisheries - now we need the political will!

If food loss and waste were a country, it would be the third biggest source of greenhouse gas emissions.

1. Internationaler #ZeroWasteDay: #ZeroWaste bedeutet für uns #NullVerschwendung, Umdenken von Wirtschaft & Bevölkerung, Stärkung #Kreislaufwirtschaft + Schaffung geschlossener Kreisläufe. Für #Berlin haben wir vielfältige Angebote & arbeiten an weiteren Lösungen.

Obwohl wir jetzt wissen, dass es wichtig ist, uns alle als Gesellschaft an ein sich bereits veränderndes Klima anzupassen, dürfen wir auch nicht vergessen, dass es wichtig es ist, unsere Emissionen zu reduzieren, um den Schaden nicht noch weiter zu verstärken.
Lasst uns an diesem #ZeroWasteDay zusammenarbeiten, um das Leben unserer zukünftigen Generationen zu schützen.

Happy #ZeroWasteDay!

We need to substantially slow down our consumption of resources.

Let's learn to #repair, #reuse and #share as much as possible, and fight to put an end to the throw-away economy.

"We must massively invest in (...) policies that encourage people to re-use and recycle everything from plastic bottles to ageing electronics." said António Guterres.

#Repair is essential to unlock reuse & zero-waste, this is why we need a #RightToRepair.

#DidYouKnow that 80% of the waste in water comes from the land?

Yes, a big part of our waste ends up in our fresh & marine waters polluting them & negatively affecting our lives & our🌏.

On #ZeroWasteDay let's continue to take #WaterActions & avoid dumping waste in our water.

DYK: More than 75% of electronic waste is not disposed of safely.

I am glad the @EU_Commission tries to tackle waste using legislation like right to repair. I just hope the legislation won't be watered down by industry lobbying, like what happened with the REACH legislation and like what's happening now with the Green Deal.

Message from the commission on #ZeroWasteDay :
https://social.network.europa.eu/@EU_Commission/110111075136950073

Up to 37 million tons of plastic waste is expected to enter the ocean annually by 2040.

Do you still think waste sorting is a loss of time?

We are united to fight these global challenges. With the:

🔹 Right to Repair initiative, aiming at reducing waste and allowing consumers to achieve considerable savings,

🔹 rule on single-use plastic products, which tackles their dissemination,

🔹 Farm to Fork strategy, aiming at creating a sustainable food system.

Let's make every day a #ZeroWasteDay!

Humans have produced 8.3 billion metric tons of plastic - half of that in just the last 13 years.

That’s equivalent to one ton of plastic for every person on 🌎.

#StichwortderWoche aus dem #Politiklexikon für junge Leute: #Nachhaltigkeit Der Zero Waste Day am 30. März zielt darauf ab, nachhaltige Konsum- und Produktionsmuster zu fördern, den gesellschaftlichen Wandel hin zur Kreislaufwirtschaft zu unterstützen.: https://www.politik-lexikon.at/nachhaltigkeit/
#zerowasteday #nachhaltigkeit #umwelt #sdg

The International Day of Zero Waste aims to promote sustainable consumption and production patterns, support the societal shift towards circularity and raise awareness.

The waste sector contributes significantly to the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity and nature loss, and pollution. Humanity generates an estimated 2.24 billion tons of municipal solid waste annually.
