These young people have a message for world leaders on plastic pollution

Plastic production has doubled in the past 2 decades alone - and by 2060, the amount of plastic waste dumped in the environment could triple. These Global Shapers have some words for the governments and business leaders of the world. From a revolution in waste segregation to greater accountability, here’s what the next generation is demanding when it comes to bringing about an end to plastic pollution. The Global Plastic Action Partnership, led by the World Economic Forum, is the world’s largest initiative tackling plastic pollution. Through 25 national partnerships, GPAP mobilizes governments, businesses, and civil society to accelerate action toward a circular economy for plastics.
