Ten years after the #ParisAgreement was adopted, the world is still heading toward a breach of the 1.5Β°C limit.

Recycling was never designed to solve the plastics crisis. Industry sold a myth while plastic production kept rising.

It is time to #MakePollutersPay. #climatechange #strangerthings #memes #vecna image
