BPA, a prolific chemical in everyday plastic items, will no longer be allowed in plastic that comes into contact with food and drink EU decides. After a 18-month phase out period, hopefully, our exposure to toxic BPAs will be limited and not replaced by another chemical equally or more toxic #BPAban

Unfortunately the INC5 negotiations in Busan, South Korea last week have not resulted in an ambitious Global Plastic Treaty (yet). We still have hope! Read our full article on INC5 here: bit.ly/3BcY42X Also don't forget to sign our petition for a strong agreement here: bit.ly/4eEb3cf

More and more scientists point out the health risks of plastic. We eat, drink and breathe plastic. Help us turn off the plastic tap.

Today I had the honor of speaking about human health effects of #microplastics in one of the oldest zoos in the world: Artis in Amsterdam. Many companies present to learn how they can help solve the world’s plastic problem. Including many young people, inspiring to see the next generation caring!
