Plastic waste kills an estimated 1 million aquatic animals in the sea every year
We have produced more plastic products in the last ten years than in the previous century
On average, 150 to 200 species go extinct in a single day
The World Health Organization reports that air pollution causes about seven million deaths each year
Natural Disasters: The number of natural disasters has increased fivefold over the past half-century
A 1.5°C increase in average global temperature will cause a monstrous increase in the frequency and intensity of droughts, storms and other disasters
