DEMAND bold solutions from the EPA to address the plastic crisis NOW!

Plastic has already made its way into every aspect of life on Earth -- our food, our water, and our air.

Our oceans are being decimated by plastic waste, and the plastic that doesn’t end up in the sea gets poured into landfills and incinerators, seeping into our soil and air. Animals are choking and dying from plastic, while humans unknowingly consume a credit card’s worth of plastic every week.

Powerful plastic corporations and their friends in the fossil fuel industry are raking in massive profits while people, animals, and the planet suffer the devastating consequences of rampant plastic pollution.

The Environmental Protection Agency MUST step up and hold Big Plastic and Big Oil accountable for their environmental destruction before the PLASTIC APOCALYPSE destroys life on Earth as we know it.

We urgently need environmentalists like you to speak up and help show strong public support for bold action to END plastic pollution. Sign now to tell the EPA to prioritize our planet over profit!

Dear EPA Administrator Regan, 
 
The world faces an indisputable plastic pollution crisis. More than 99% of plastic is made from fossil fuels, and fracked gas is fueling an unprecedented boom in plastic production. Plastic is an environmental nightmare at every step of its life cycle.  
 
Plastic production fuels the climate crisis by increasing greenhouse gas emissions and harming local communities with toxic air and water pollution.  
 
Plastic pollutes and kills wildlife. It fills our rivers and oceans, chokes out wildlife, threatens public health, permeates our drinking water, and persists in the environment for centuries.  
 
The solution to plastic pollution is clear: Reduce the amount of unnecessary plastic produced. We can transform our extractive, throwaway economy into a regenerative, inclusive one that’s good for our country and creates U.S. jobs.

Plastic is polluting our entire planet, from the beaches to the deepest depths of our oceans. And it is killing marine wildlife, including sea turtles. I demand you protect our wildlife from plastic pollution. 
 
I urge you to immediately take action on the plastics crisis and protect the health of our oceans, people, and wildlife.

Sincerely,
