Why this petition matters

Started by Justin Sather

Do you want to help us RECREATE the Plastic Industry?

And find solutions for the 91% of Plastic that Doesn't get Recycled Worldwide?

OUR MISSION IS TO RECREATE the plastic industry through creative ideas and solutions. 

Sign our petition to join our movement to encourage businesses, city and world leaders, and people world-wide to RECREATE a cleaner and healthier planet for the next generations.

We realize our old system to Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle is no longer enough.... and we need to RECREATE!

We are a group of middle school students from the USA and AFRICA on a mission to find solutions for the 91% of Plastic that Doesn't get Recycled Worldwide. 

We want to encourage businesses and people to use their imagination to recreate better systems and products for our environment. 

 

FIRST, WE LEARNED ALL ABOUT THE DANGERS OF PLASTICS...

DID YOU KNOW?

  • A million plastic bottles are bought around the world EVERY MINUTE. - Forbes
  • It take a plastic bottle over 400 years to decompose.  - NOAA
  • Every minute one garbage truck of plastic is dumped into our oceans? - World Economic Forum
  • Almost 80% of plastic carried to the ocean comes from 1,000 rivers around the world.  - The Ocean Cleanup
  • By 2050 there may be more plastic than fish in the sea.  - Ellen MacArthur

Sign our petition if you want to end the great garbage patches in our world oceans to keep animals from being harmed and plastic out of our food chain.

NEXT,  WE LEARNED THIS ASTONISHING FACT...

 

 

 

  • Recycling centers can't keep up with the extreme use of single-use plastics.  
  • Most of the USA ships their plastic waste to third-world countries without any expectation that it will be recycled.
  • Many African countries use single-use plastic because they have poor water quality.
  • Illegal dumping of single-use bottles in other countries is a major problem.
  • The majority of plastic is carried into the ocean from some of the dirtiest rivers around the world.  

 

Sign our petition if you want businesses and leaders to make positive changes for our environment.

LOOK WHAT WE HAVE ALREADY ACCOMPLISHED:

✔GOAL 1:  Educate students about the dangers of SINGLE USE PLASTIC

✔ GOAL 2:   Have students take "The Parallel Project Pledge"

✔ GOAL 5:   Work with Community and World Leaders to learn why we have a plastic pollution world problem    

 

 

 

 

GOAL 6:   Work with Businesses to Create Plastic Free Products
