🌍 Did you know? Children today are exposed to unprecedented levels of plastic, with research linking plastic chemicals to various health risks.
In 2020, global plastic production hit 435 million metric tons—that’s like 1,000 pairs of flip-flops per child every year! 😱 With production expected to rise by 70% by 2040 and less than 20% of plastics designed for recycling, it’s time to take action for a healthier future. 💙
Let’s reduce, reuse, and recycle to protect our children and planet.
