Every July is the opportunity to recognize our addiction to and need to reduce the use of plastic in our lives. According to Plastic Oceans, 300 million tons of plastic is produced a year. Eight million of that 300 million is chucked into the sea annually — equivalent to dumping a 1-ton garbage truck full of plastic into the ocean every minute. And according to Plastic Pollution Coalition, six times more plastic waste is burned in the U.S than recycled.

One organization has been taking on the plastic challenge. Plastic Free July is a global movement that helps millions of people be part of the solution to plastic pollution, “so we can have cleaner streets, oceans, and beautiful communities”.
