About This Collection

This collection represents the video collections from two organizations. Both have YouTube channels as well as websites for more detailed information.

Beyond Plastics

Launched in January 2019 and based at Bennington College, Beyond Plastics pairs the wisdom and experience of environmental policy experts with the energy and creativity of grassroots advocates to build a vibrant and effective movement to end plastic pollution. We use our deep policy and advocacy expertise to build a well-informed, effective movement seeking to achieve the institutional, economic, and societal changes needed to save our planet, and ourselves, from the negative health, climate, and environmental impacts of the production, usage, and disposal of plastics.

Plastic Pollution Coalition

Their expansive global alliance includes more than 1,300 organizations and businesses, and more than 14,000 individuals who have the shared goal of helping to create a more just, equitable, regenerative world free of plastic pollution and its toxic impacts.

The One Minute Challenge to Find the Plastic

In honor of Earth Day, I’m sharing a video featuring Chris Jordan's "one minute challenge" from March 2016. This challenge encourages individuals to pick up as much trash as possible in one minute, highlighting the extensive impact of plastic waste on wildlife and ecosystems.

I hope this inspires you to collect debris during your walks or to challenge friends to participate in the one minute challenge. If you take part, please record your efforts, upload the video, and share it!
