Animals and pollution: time for action
Wild spaces
National Parks and wildlife reserves can still be affected by plastic pollution. Respect wild animals like cheetahs, pangolins and wolves by always taking your plastic waste to the nearest recycling bin!
Our oceans
Animals that live in and around water – like sea otters and river otters – sometimes eat plastic by mistake. Recycling helps to keep plastic out of our oceans and protect our marine life!
City living
Plastic can be a problem for wildlife in cities, too. Thankfully, lots of cities have recycling bins, making it easier to recycle your trash and keep cities and green spaces trash-free!
How YOU can help!
