  • Greenpeace Malaysia has been conducting a field investigation on the broken system of recycling and how it impacts Malaysian society. The findings were shocking: a new ‘dump site’ of plastic waste from more than 19 countries -- most of them are developed countries. The investigation found illegal practices, and blatant violations causing environmental pollution as well as harming people’s health conditions.  Since China banned plastic waste imports in January 2018, countries in Southeast Asia - particularly Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia - have accepted an increased amount of plastic waste. Between January and July 2018 alone, Malaysia imported 754,000 metric tonnes of plastic -- the weight of approximately 100,000 large elephants. It came from countries like the United States, Japan, UK, Australia, New Zealand, Finland, France, Belgium, Germany, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.

Allein zwischen Januar und Juli 2018 importierte Malaysia 754.000 Tonnen Plastik – das Gewicht von etwa 100.000 großen Elefanten.

  • Greenpeace Italy activists protest at San Pellegrino plant, one of the main brand properties of Nestlé, asking Nestlé to stop polluting the planet with single-use plastic. Greenpeace is demanding that Nestlé end its reliance on single-use plastic, and invest immediately in alternative delivery systems based on refill and reuse. Attivisti di Greenpeace si sono incatenati davanti all’ingresso della fabbrica di imbottigliamento di Nestlé/San Pellegrino in località Ruspino (Bergamo). Mentre un gruppo si disponeva all’ingresso con bidoni etichettati con il famoso brand di acqua in bottiglia, un altro, appendendosi a due silos della fabbrica, apriva due grandi striscioni: uno con scritto “Nestlé, Basta Plastica Usa e Getta” e l’altro raffigurante il “Plastic Monster”, il mostro simbolico del danno inestimabile che la produzione indiscriminata di plastica produce al Pianeta.

  • A Break Free From Plastic message lights up the night near the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington.  Its already no secret that big brands are driving the plastic pollution crisis. In 2020, Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, and Nestle were once again named the world's biggest corporate polluters. These companies' business models are built on greenwashing customers into falsely believing recycling will fix plastic pollution. It is also built on keeping the fossil fuel industry in business by continuing to churn out a never ending supply of cheap, single-use plastic.  As the fossil fuel industry doubles down on plastic bottles and packaging, Coca-Cola, PepsiCo, and Nestle will be the next key villains in driving the climate crisis. 99% of plastic is made from fossil fuels, like fracked gas and oil, and it contributes to climate change at every step of its lifecycle, from extraction to refinement, manufacture, transportation, disposal, and waste.
    5 /5 Die Nachricht "Befreien wir uns von Plastik" erhellt die Nacht in der Nähe des US-Kapitols in Washington. Konzerne treiben die Krise der Plastikverschmutzung massiv voran. Coca-Cola, PepsiCo und Nestle gehören zu den weltweit größten Umweltverschmutzern.
