Free action # 5 of 7 is to remove a piece of plastic from the ocean, f. ex. a stupid Coca Cola bottle.
In Germany we have a deposit system, but as far as I know the 0,33 l Coca Cola bottles are still #SingleUsePlastic, I do not buy Coca Cola.

Silicone is not plastic-free; it is a synthetic polymer. What it does do is replace the baggies and cling wrap I used to burn through, and mine have held up well. Ditch the single-use plastic!

Stretchier paper removed 288 million bags from packing lines in 2025, and sellers lose the plastic mailer surface. What still jams the retrofitted machines?

A great idea, grow vegetables on the supermarket roof, making the supply chain really short and the produce as fresh as it could be.
But then they package the produce in single-use plastic!

‘Fresh from the roof’: the supermarket growing salad a few metres above the tills
Customers seeking greens at one Berlin outlet are dealing with some very local supply chains indeed

The "innovator" who thought of this must have forgotten how taps work.

We really don't need pre-packaged water in single-use plastic cups, even if it's frozen.
This is a cold take if I’ve ever
seen one.

Your carbon footprint is only half the story.
#FastFashion is a big problem, and so is #SingleUsePlastic.
I wear my clothes for years, until they´re washed out and worn out.

Your carbon footprint is only half the story
A pioneering study introduces a parallel metric, the plastic particle footprint — and uses it to rerank kettles, bottles, crates, and T-shirts. The winners aren't who you'd expect.

Ocean microbes may be developing taste for plastic pollution, nevertheless it can take centuries until #Microplastics are decomposed, so we need to stop #SingleUsePlastic productions.

Ocean microbes may be developing taste for plastic pollution
New research finds bacteria in more than 75% of global ocean samples equipped with enzymes that can break down PET—the plastic used in bottles.

In Germany plastic bags, plastic straws and plastic q-tips´ve been banned yet, other #SingleUsePlastic products need to follow. I never buy anything #ToGo, I cook and eat at home only.

How do you keep wasps away when enjoying a meal outside? For outdoor drinks please use a straw, but not made of #SingleUsePlastic, f. ex. Rewe just sold reusable straws last week. Do not kill the wasps, in Germany that´s a felony, they´re protected.

🚨🚨 @governor.ca.gov dropped the ball on landmark #plastic legislation to reduce #singleuseplastic in CA. While he touted it in 2022, it's now 2024, say critics, and his sights are on the White House -- not CA's beaches, wildlife and people. www.latimes.com/environment/...

California banned polystyrene. Has the plastic industry spooked the governor into silence?
SB54 put an end to polystyrene — which had low recycling rates and high levels of pollution — in California. But the plastic industry may have spooked the governor into silence.

17 states sued California to block its plastic packaging law, the nation’s strictest.

Their argument: it forces businesses to change.

That’s the point. Plastic doesn’t stop at state lines. Neither should the rules.
