Brief: "A radical stance against plastic"
“Lobby governments around the world to create a 90%+ tax on all non-recycled plastic production”
Background:
Let’s be clear. Plastic straws suck. But they’re only a small part of the problem. Less than 9% of all the plastic we use every day gets recycled. Most ends up in landfills or floating out in the ocean.
In 2015, worldwide plastic consumption totaled 300 million metric tonnes. This means that for each of the world's 7.6 billion humans, we're making 88 pounds of plastic a year. Oh, and that number is growing.
Sure, some corporations and governments are taking a step in the right direction by banning plastic straws. But that’s not going to cut it. The urgency and scale of the plastic problem calls for radical measures.
This is where you come in.
Assignment:
The plastic industry won’t change its methods unless we hit them where it really hurts: the bottom line.
Let’s lobby governments around the world to create a 90%+ tax on all non-recycled plastic production.
This campaign has a very clear and singular KPI: has your local government implemented the plastic tax? Yes or no.
You can use whichever medium or method you see fit, as long as it gets to your local government and inspires action.
Deadline for Round 3 is November 30th 2018, 11:59pm Los Angeles time.
