Plastik ist überall – auch dort, wo wir es nicht vermuten. 👀
Zum Start des #plasticfreejuly zeigen wir, wo sich verstecktes Plastik in unserem Alltag verbirgt – und warum das relevant ist.

Heute ist Weltumwelttag!Unser Infobrief www.boell.de/de/2026/06/0... zeigt, wie unterschiedlich sich die Plastikkrise auf die Geschlechter auswirkt und geschlechtsspezifische Machtungleichheit weiter verschärft. Die #Plastikwende gelingt nur, wenn Strukturen sozialer Diskriminierung bekämpft werden.

Lets talk plastic on Earth Day: more than 12 billion tonnes of plastic had been produced globally by 2025. The plastic crisis not only threatens human and planetary health but runs along the fault lines of gender and global inequality. Find out more in our new paper:

🔥 🏭 Waste-to-energy is a FALSE solution to plastic pollution.

The REAL solution? CUT plastic production and scale up REUSE systems.

Together with more then 50 organizations around the globe we made a joined statement on the Colombian efforts towards a global agreement on minerals. Monday @UNEP set the date to hand in draft resolutions to be negotiated further!
Mineral demand is surging. Without safeguards, communities & ecosystems will pay the price.

Colombia’s initiative at #UNEA7 is a chance to change course. With partners, we encourage it to submit its resolution by 29 Sept so it can be debated in Dec.

📣 Jetzt kommt es drauf an die Chance zu nutzen & die #Plastikverschmutzung an der Quelle zu stoppen!
👍 Wir brauchen ein starkes & verbindliches #Plastikabkommen, das auch #Plastikproduktion einschließt.
👎Ein Abkommen, das nur Abfall reguliert, greift zu kurz!
