Since
our launch in 2020, we have grown into an active group of youth environmental
activists, students and volunteers demanding greater corporate accountability
and corporate action to end plastic pollution. </span></h3><div><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Corporations are endangering our
future by continuing to produce single-use plastics. We are raising awareness
towards the science of plastics, its effects on people, planet and climate and
what corporate polluters need to do about it. Young voices matter because we
will live with the heaviest consequences of the plastic and climate crises that
our generation contributed to the least.</span></h3><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #161718; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 18.0pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-themecolor: text1;"><o:p></o:p></span></p><div><span style="line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.9733px; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjHa23qMpjq68ZjB7mURmTbBbYAhcu8JdqdwKrlrTE4FIzEZFd3C07wl8Qreytk4XA1l8-9xopta6QxueLKRCv9N1_pso5vsO5QhQdrca9cx4KeRLIt50l7d_-w1fq6TPClaCm-XFEBA5zufrV2W_VPKpqI54WEzrbNAUr73qgPTQabFrj22dz03MgfJQ=s1080" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjHa23qMpjq68ZjB7mURmTbBbYAhcu8JdqdwKrlrTE4FIzEZFd3C07wl8Qreytk4XA1l8-9xopta6QxueLKRCv9N1_pso5vsO5QhQdrca9cx4KeRLIt50l7d_-w1fq6TPClaCm-XFEBA5zufrV2W_VPKpqI54WEzrbNAUr73qgPTQabFrj22dz03MgfJQ=w640-h640" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>We are an active group of youth environmental activists, volunteers and students. </span></span></h3><div><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.9733px; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.9733px; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Through our work we are educating, empowering and supporting communities to end plastic pollution. </span></span></h3><div><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.9733px; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.9733px; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Our informed campaigns are based on collected brand audit data exposing the extent of reach by plastic waste and its polluters in our communities.</span></span></h3><div><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.9733px; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></span></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt; line-height: 19.9733px; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">This is done while we cleanup the communities where we find this plastic waste. </span></span></h3><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Through our informative campaigns and activities we are growing a strong voice and platform for fighting against the increasing plastic pollution problem with an action oriented approach.</span></h3><div><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div></span></div><h3 style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Many companies producing plastics have for a long time ignored taking action towards the plastic pollution crisis they create.
