CANADA MUST LEAD GLOBAL EFFORTS TO ELIMINATE PLASTIC POLLUTION

Your phone call can make a difference.

In just a few weeks, Canada’s Environment and Climate Change Minister, Julie Dabrusin, will attend what could be the final round of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (INC) – an international assembly aiming to develop a global treaty to end the plastic pollution crisis.

Before she heads to these crucial global talks in early August, our new Environment Minister needs to hear that stopping plastic pollution must be a strong priority. Please call Minister Dabrusin today to tell her that you want to see swift action on plastic pollution – both on the world stage and here at home. 

It’s time to step up efforts to curb the production and use of plastics in Canada. The environment is suffering from plastics accumulating in oceans, lakes and rivers, animal habitats, and so is our health, with microplastics accumulating in our bodies.

Canada must play a lead role to get this Treaty across the finish line and implement strong measures against plastic pollution across the country – and we need your help to send a strong message.

It’s really easy to make the call – and we know phone calls have a huge impact on decision-makers.
