Visit to Central America: June and July 2011
Plastic Pollution Coalition
Posted on Jul 12th, 2011
The message of plastic pollution is spreading fast around the globe. At the end of June 2011, our Executive Director Daniella Russo led a Plastic Pollution Coalition group on a visit to Nicaragua, Costa Rica and Guatemala, at the special invitation of Preserve Planet, Jovenes Ambientalistas, SAVIA and G-22. The group included also PPC Science Advisory Board Chair Wallace “J” Nichols, Ph.D.; Nancy Buermeyer, Senior Policy Strategist of the Breast Cancer Fund, a member of PPC; and PPC Advisor JD Russo.
In a series of press conferences, media interviews and meetings with local environmental organizations, the PPC group discussed plastic pollution and its effects on eco-system degradation, public health, environmental justice and global awareness about these issues. In a top-line estimate, we have reached over 100,000 people in a combination of press conferences and media coverage.
