SUMMARY:Laten we een einde maken aan het plastictijdperk - petitie
DESCRIPTION:Plastic heeft een verwoestende uitwerking op de gezondheid van gemeenschappen over de hele wereld; het doodt schildpadden\, zeevogels en andere dieren. \nPlasticvervuiling is overal. Van stranden in Zuidoost-Azië tot het afgelegen Antarctica. Greenpeace wil dat overheden afspraken met elkaar maken over hoe we een einde maken aan het plastictijdperk. Plasticvervuiling is een wereldwijd probleem dat schreeuwt om een wereldwijde oplossing. Greenpeace eisen een ambitieus internationaal verdrag dat de productie en het gebruik van plastic beperkt. Dat zou een enorme stap zijn naar een plasticvrije toekomst. Een sterk verdrag zal: \n\nolie en gas in de grond houden (plastic wordt gemaakt van olie);\ngrote bedrijven verplichten hun buitensporige plasticproductie terug te dringen;\nde overstap naar hervul- en hergebruiksystemen razendsnel realiseren;\nrijke landen verplichten de meest getroffen en armere landen te helpen bij de transitie\nen een eerlijke\, rechtvaardige overgang voor de getroffen werknemers garanderen.\n\nTeken de petitie waarin onze regering wordt opgeroepen het wereldwijde probleem van plasticvervuiling op te lossen door een ‘Global Plastics Treaty’ veilig te stellen. \nLinks:\nJa\, ik eis een einde aan het plastictijdperk! \nThe Global Plastics Treaty \nToxic plastic chemicals have been found in children’s toys and everyday products \nGlobal Plastics Treaty – EarthDay \nMicroplastic\, macro panic  \nSign up for a strong plastic treaty! – petition \nPlastic bakjes opwarmen in de magnetron: is het veilig?

SUMMARY:Day of Zero Waste 2026
DESCRIPTION:On 14 December 2022\, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution at its seventy-seventh session to proclaim 30 March as International Day of Zero Waste\, to be observed annually. \nTürkiye\, with 105 other countries\, put forward the resolution\, following other high-level decisions focused on pollution\, such as the UN Environment Assembly resolution “End plastic pollution: towards an internationally legally binding instrument”. The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) jointly facilitate the observance of International Day of Zero Waste. As part of this campaign\, Member States\, organizations of the United Nations system\, civil society\, the private sector\, academia\, women\, youth and other stakeholders are invited to engage in activities aimed at raising awareness of national\, subnational\, regional and local zero-waste initiatives and their contribution to achieving sustainable development. Promoting zero-waste initiatives through this international day can help advance all the goals and targets in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development\, including Sustainable Development Goal 11 and Sustainable Development Goal 12. These goals address all forms of waste\, including food loss and waste\, natural resource extraction and electronic waste. \n2026 Theme: Zero Waste Starts on Your Plate. For this year’s International Day of Zero Waste\, the focus is on food – what we eat\, what we waste\, and how we can move towards a more circular future. The world wastes food on a staggering scale. Every year we throw away about 1 billion tonnes of edible food\, nearly one-fifth of all food available to consumers. This impacts both people and the environment. Around 60 per cent of food waste happens at the household level. The rest comes mostly from food service and retail\, the result of inefficient food systems – including production\, distribution and consumption. Tackling this issue requires redesigning these systems\, transitioning towards a more sustainable\, circular approach grounded in efficiency\, resilience and sustainability. For this transition to succeed\, we all have a role to play. \nGovernments can: \n\nAdvance food waste prevention through climate and biodiversity plans and national policies on circularity\, waste\, food systems\, agriculture and urban development and promote measurement and monitoring.\nStrengthen public–private partnerships.\nSignal leadership and take action by joining the Food Waste Breakthrough.\n\nBusinesses can: \n\nSet measurable food waste reduction targets and integrate them into existing sustainability commitments.\nInnovate to transition to circular food systems and improve efficiency across supply chains.\nJoin the Food Waste Breakthrough to scale solutions and share progress.\n\nConsumers can: \n\nPlan\, buy\, store and prepare food mindfully to cut waste and save resources.\nSupport food recovery\, redistribution and composting initiatives.\nHelp make food waste socially unacceptable through everyday action.\n\nA zero-waste future is possible when we all work together – do your part by consuming thoughtfully\, recovering surplus food\, and working to build circular food systems. Let’s ensure our food is valued\, not wasted. \nLinks:\nDay of Zero Waste

SUMMARY:Exploring Everyday Microplastic Exposures - publication
DESCRIPTION:The report ‘Exploring Everyday Microplastic Exposures‘ reveals shocking scale of hidden global microplastic exposure. \nThe report highlights the vast scale of microplastic exposure in daily life in what experts are calling a “microplastic storm” from overlooked and emerging sources. Funded by Plastic Soup Foundation and The Flotilla Foundation\, ‘Exploring Everyday Microplastic Exposures’\, the first-of-its-kind report draws on over 350 peer-reviewed studies and concludes that human exposure is continuous and global. The findings lay bare an exposure crisis through mapping microplastic release across five categories of everyday life: outdoor sources\, indoor environments\, children’s products\, healthcare and personal care\, and food and drink. By highlighting a continuous flow of particles generated from overlooked and emerging sources the report reframes the plastics crisis as a systemic exposure issue embedded across modern society. Among the report’s most striking findings is evidence that emerging climate interventions could make microplastic exposure significantly worse. For example\, stratospheric aerosol injection – a form of solar geoengineering being advanced by countries including the United Kingdom and United States – involves dispersing vast quantities of particles high into the atmosphere. Multiple patents already exist describing the release of particles including micro sized polymeric particles at altitudes of up to 20 km in the atmosphere\, creating a potentially ‘tera scale’ source of intentionally added airborne microplastics and fallout. The research identifies that rainfall already contains microplastics with wear and tear from car tires and synthetic textiles and clothing contributing to atmospheric pollution. In hospitals\, plastic particles may be introduced into the body via devices and treatments\, with microplastic fallout in operating rooms recorded at up to 9\,258 particles per square meter during a single shift. Cardiac catheters\, silicone breast implants\, orthopedic implants or intravenous fluid all cited as sources with the potential of inadvertently dosing patients with microplastics. Startlingly\, premature babies fed intravenously in neonatal units are estimated to receive up to 115 microplastic particles over a 72-hour feeding period from the infusion circuits alone. Baby formula intake exposes babies to microplastics at levels from <1 to 17 microplastics per gram formula with packaging types playing a role in releasing the observed microplastics. Children’s products are also of significant concern – building bricks\, baby play mats and other products for children releasing PET\, polypropylene\, polyethylene and PVC into a child’s living environment. As children naturally ingest more settled dust during play and breathe in more air per kilogram bodyweight\, their exposure is proportionally higher than adults. Another unexpected indoor exposure is via paint. Plastic is the main component of many paint products and such paint emit microplastics when it wears down or when old layers are scraped off. A single coat applied across 100 square meters is estimated to contain between 17 and 68 quadrillion polymeric particles. \nLinks:\nShocking report about our hidden microplastic exposure

SUMMARY:Plastic Bag Free Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:This Plastic Bag Free Day\, celebrated internationally on 3 July\, discover how Cohesion Policy cooperation projects help cut plastic waste: from cleaner festivals to everyday reusable habits inspired by transnational cooperation. \nEstablished in 2009\, the International Plastic Bag Free Day raises awareness of single-use plastic bags’ environmental toll – with 1–5 trillion consumed globally each year\, taking up to 1\,000 years to decompose. How many plastic bags have you used this week? On 3 July\, International Plastic Bag Free Day invites us to think twice before taking another disposable bag at the checkout. But reducing plastic waste doesn’t stop there. \nLinks:\nIt starts with a bag\, but it doesn’t end \nPlastic Free July 2026

SUMMARY:#NoPlasticFilter No Butts Day 2026
DESCRIPTION:On No Butts Day\, every first Saturday of July\, thousands of people from 25 countries around the world joined forces for the largest plastic cigarette filter action on the planet. \nCoordinated by the Dutch Plastic Cigarette Butt Collective\, they collected 964\,000 plastic cigarette filters from their local streets\, parks\, and waterways. The event originated in The Netherlands in 2019\, and grew into an international action. No Butts Day is an effective way to raise awareness about the environmental damage caused by cigarette filter litter. Despite what the tobacco industry claims\, this problem can’t simply be cleaned up. The only real solution is to ban plastic cigarette filters. \nLinks:\nNo Butts Day

SUMMARY:Beach Cleanup Tour 2026
DESCRIPTION:De Beach Cleanup Tour vindt plaats van 1 tot en met 15 augustus 2026\, op 30 locaties langs de hele Noordzeekust\, van Cadzand tot Schiermonnikoog. \nEen sigarettenpeuk in het zand. Een plastic zakje dat over het strand waait. Dat korte steekje van ergernis – bijna verdriet – omdat dit strand jou dierbaar is. De Noordzee\, met haar stranden\, is ons grootste natuurgebied. Meer dan 1300 soorten leven hier\, van de zeemeeuw tot de bruinvis. Zij delen hun leefomgeving met het afval dat wij achterlaten. En jij komt hier juist om te genieten van rust\, ruimte en natuur. Langs 30 locaties aan de hele Noordzeekust pakken ieder jaar duizenden mensen hun emmer. Samen ruimen ze op wat hier niet thuishoort. Omdat een volle emmer aan het einde van de dag het verschil maakt. \nLinks:\nBeach Cleanup Tour \nGoed nieuws uit Zandvoort 🌊✨️
