Since its 1970 debut, Earth Day has united billions globally to champion environmental causes. This year’s theme, ‘Planet vs. Plastics’, sounds the alarm on one of humanity’s biggest environmental threats. 🌏💥
Organized by nonprofit Earthday.org, the campaign aims to slash plastic production by 60% by 2040—a bold move to protect ecosystems and human health. With nearly 200 countries participating, the push highlights how microplastics now infiltrate our food, water, and even our bodies. 🥤🚨
\"We’re drowning in plastic waste,\" says Earthday.org’s latest report, urging governments and corporations to prioritize sustainable alternatives. From beach cleanups to viral TikTok challenges, young activists are leading the charge. Ready to join? Swap single-use plastics for reusable gear—every bottle counts! ♻️✨
