Rejected petition: Stop Choking Our Oceans: Demand Immediate Action on Marine Pollution!
Rejected on
Our oceans are drowning, and it’s a crisis of our own making. Every single minute, the equivalent of a full garbage truck of plastic is dumped into the sea. From the coastlines we love to the deepest trenches on Earth, marine life is suffocating.
Sea turtles are mistaking plastic bags for jellyfish, whales are washing ashore with stomachs full of trash, and microscopic toxins are entering the seafood supply chain—directly impacting human health.
This isn't just an environmental issue; it’s a threat to the global life support system that provides over 50% of our oxygen and regulates the Earth's climate.
