Let’s face it. The adults

have made a mess of

this world. Now it’s

up to us to fix it.

Not only are the adults unwilling to stop burning fossil fuels, but now they're refusing to do anything about all the PLASTIC that's polluting every corner of our planet and our bodies!

 

Are you kidding???
 

The only solution is for us, who will have to live with this plastic crisis for our lifetimes, to show them how it's done. So, here are two things that we can do right now:

 

​

ONE: It’s about time we get rid of plastic water bottles in our

schools. They take about 400 years to fully break down, and that's

into microplastics, which is worse! Re-useable water bottles are cheap,

and if you absolutely have to, you can always get water in paper boxes

or cans.
 

TWO: Get your school district to require their vendors to stop

using plastic packing materials...things like bubble wrap

and styrofoam peanuts. Packing materials account for almost

40% of all plastic waste!
 

Let’s get it together and make a huge difference. Others will

follow! Check out the Get Started page to learn how you can help.
