#UNLITTER’S FUN FACT OF THE MONTH

Did you know the average plastic straw takes more than 200 years to decompose? Americans use an estimated 500 million straws every single day, that is enough to wrap around the Earth 2.5 times daily.


Let’s keep making mindful choices and showing up for our planet, one small step at a time.

ABOUT THE #UNLITTER MOVEMENT

#UNLITTER is a nonprofit that empowers individuals to live more consciously and to positively affect their society.

This movement does more than encourage people to pick up litter off the ground. Its main goal is to increase environmental awareness and educate people on how to live sustainably.

If you are interested in joining the team (in any capacity) check out what positions are open here, or email [email protected] and say hi.

THANK YOU!

Thanks for being part of this journey. We’re so excited for what’s ahead and grateful to have you with us as we continue to #UNLITTER the world, and ourselves.

All love,
Croft McLean
