Plastic pollution affects every ecosystem and every person on the planet. It’s in our oceans, our soil, our food, our water — and even the air we breathe. Inger Andersen, UNEP explores solutions.

On June 5th, #WorldEnvironmentDay, we have a chance to turn the tide. With innovation, collaboration, and bold action, we can #BeatPlasticPollution.
