Research has shown that 80% of litter found in oceans, originates inland. Due to human behaviour of littering and lack of waste management, waste finds its way into rivers which eventually lead to our oceans.
The plastics industry and partners are taking action by identifying river catchment areas in the various provinces and assisting with solutions to the problem of litter in our waterways.
Earth Day is a serious reminder that our Earth is the only planet available to us. We need to look after it by protecting land, sea and air for future generations and the wildlife that depend on it.
Plan a clean-up of your school, office or a park or river near you and create awareness of why we need to observe Earth day!
