On average, the world produces 430 million tonnes of plastic each year, 2/3rds of which are used only briefly. Every day, over 2,000 garbage trucks’ worth of plastic end up in our oceans, rivers, & lakes. If no action is taken, #plasticpollution is projected to triple by 2060.
Today, I visited Team #UNICAccra & discovered some of the amazing work of the team including advancing the UN’s values, from peacebuilding to youth empowerment. The #IPledge4Peace campaign reminded me of how vital it is to protect Ghana’s peace. Count me in: #IPledge4PeaceGh ✌🏾
