#EarthDay2024 🌍 | Planet vs. Plastics This year's edition of Earth Day shines a spotlight on a critical challenge: Planet vs. Plastics. It's a call to action to mitigate the health risks of plastics, phase out single-use plastics, support a strong UN Treaty on Plastic Pollution, and demand an end to fast fashion. 👗🛒🛍️ Did you know? Every year, about 8 million tons of plastic waste escape into our oceans, severely threatening marine life and ecosystems. 🗑️ At ASUENE, we're committed to addressing these issues head-on. By empowering organizations to visualize and reduce their environmental footprint, we're taking strides toward a plastic-free, sustainable future. 🌱 Let's join forces to protect our planet. The time for action is now. #EarthDay #PlanetVsPlastics #Sustainability #Asuene

Inspired by the environmental movement, Earth Day was launched in 1970 by Senator Gaylord Nelson and Denis Hayes, to educate people and fight for a healthier planet.🌍 🌱 The theme for Earth Day 2024 is Planet vs. Plastics! So, this Earth Day, let’s focus on a pressing issue: plastic pollution. Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste end up in our oceans, landfills, and even our food chain. It harms wildlife, pollutes our environment, and poses a serious threat to our planet’s health. But there’s hope! We can all take action to reduce plastic pollution and create a cleaner, healthier future for ourselves and the planet.😇 Remember, every action, however small, contributes to a healthier planet. 💪🏻 Let’s work together to ensure a thriving Earth for generations to come. 🤩 . . . #EarthDay2024 #ProtectOurPlanet #Aristsystemsnagpur #aristasystems #outsourcing #UnitedStates  #April222024 #climateaction

🌍🌱 Let's Take Action this Earth Day! 🌱🌍 As we celebrate Earth Day, let's reflect on the urgent need for collective action to combat one of our planet's greatest challenges: plastic pollution. The theme for Earth Day 2024, "Planet vs Plastics," underscores the critical importance of repairing and healing our ecosystems, combating climate change, and preserving biodiversity. 🌿♻️ Did you know that every year, a staggering 10 million metric tons of plastic end up in our oceans, causing irreparable harm to marine life? From majestic turtles to magnificent whales and playful seals, nearly 700 species are affected by this plastic invasion. A whopping 80% of all marine debris is plastic, with a shocking 52% of sea turtles having ingested plastic particles.🐋🐢 This year’s theme is Planet vs. Plastics, which calls on government leaders, businesses, and everyday people to reduce plastic production by 60% by 2040. It also calls for the full elimination of single-use plastics by the end of this decade. It's time to make a change and protect our precious planet for future generations. 🌿🌍 Together, we can make a difference. Join the movement towards sustainability and environmental stewardship. Let's pledge to reduce plastic waste, promote recycling efforts, and advocate for a cleaner, greener future. 🌏💚 This Earth Day, let's stand united in our commitment to safeguarding our environment.

🌍 Happy Earth Day! Single-use plastics pose a grave threat to our environment, endangering wildlife and exacerbating the climate crisis. EARTHDAY.ORG’s global theme for Earth Day 2024, Planet vs. Plastics, calls for the end of plastics for the sake of human and planetary health. It demands a 60% reduction in the production of plastics by 2040 and an ultimate goal of building a plastic-free future for generations to come. Phasing out single-use plastics would effectively eradicate 50% of the plastic pollution plaguing our planet annually. Recognising this urgent need, we're proactively taking steps to diminish our consumption of these harmful materials. We are actively reducing our use of single-use plastics and shrinking our carbon footprint. By eliminating plastic waste from our daily operations and integrating sustainable alternatives, we're actively safeguarding our environment. Teaming up with Positive Planet, we're measuring our carbon emissions throughout our operations, enabling us to pinpoint areas for where we can execute impactful strategies to reduce our environmental footprint. Together, we can take meaningful steps to reduce our impact and create a sustainable legacy for our planet, benefiting both current and future generations.

Happy world earth day to my LinkedIn community!   🌍🚫 This year's global theme is 'Planet vs. Plastics', focusing on the threat posed by plastic pollution to our planet's health and biodiversity. So I wanted to share some facts about the global impact of plastic pollution:   🏭 For every 1 tonne of plastic produced, 2.5 tonnes of CO2 is generated. It is derived from fossil fuels, and its production consumes substantial energy- perpetuating its reliance on non-renewable resources.   🐟 Annually, over 8 million pieces of plastic pollution infiltrate our oceans. Alarmingly, only 1% of this plastic is visibly afloat, with the majority having disintegrated and submerged to the ocean floor. Taking upwards of 700 years to degrade into microplastics, these particles are ingested or absorbed by marine organisms, disrupting their biological functions to absorb CO2 .   Surfers Against Sewage report 1 in 3 fish caught for human consumption is now contaminated by plastic.   ♻️ The disposal of plastic in landfills releases methane, a potent greenhouse gas, during decomposition, exacerbating climate change.   🔥 Did you know: 2023 was officially declared the hottest on record by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). This dire milestone witnessed unprecedented climate anomalies, including heightened ocean temperatures, sea level escalation, Antarctic sea ice depletion, and glacier recession.   🌱 The recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report issues a stark warning: urgent measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are imperative to avert a projected 3.2°C temperature rise by 2100, with catastrophic implications for ecosystems and humanity.   We have the power to take meaningful action, from reducing personal consumption of single-use plastics, separating and recycling plastic waste, to advocating for sustainable operations at work.   #WorldEarthDay #PlanetvsPlastics #Sustainability #ClimateAction
