  1. ☕️🚫 Breaking news: Starbucks' "Widely Recyclable" cups were about as recyclable as your grandma's fruitcake. Turns out, Beyond Plastics uncovered that these cups didn't even grace the steps of a #recycling facility. 🌍♻️ But fear not, they're working tirelessly to stop single-use plastic pollution—right after their next coffee break.

  2. A cool replacement for the plastic pharmacy orange medicine containers. Tully Tubes are paper and still child resistant and hold up to temp and water... Hope we see these adopted by pharmacies ASAP. #BeyondPlastics

  3. Made a zero-synthetics, un-dyed pillow with cattail fluff, flax linen cover & cotton thread. #beyondplastics

  4. Just learned about this documentary, Blue Vinyl. Looks like something worth watching!

  5. It is with deep regret that I must admit that #vegan #fashion relies heavily on #plastic that does not last very long and has to be discarded when in disrepair. While I am remaining #plantbased in #diet, to minimize harm to animals, I will thrift and even buy new #wool #leather or #fur if #cotton alternatives are not available. This is the most #zerowaste thing I can do at the moment.

    That said, I detest fur on coats, or leather jackets. I will not wear such obnoxious garments.

  6. "As of 2020, the U.S. plastics industry is responsible for at least 232 million tons of CO2e gas emissions per year. This amount is equivalent to the average emissions from 116 average-sized (500-megawatt) coal-fired power plants."
