RT by @EU_ENV: How big is the unintentional pollution from plastic pellets in the EU?
· Up to € 127M worth of plastic pellets lost every year.
· That’s up to 184k tonnes, or 7300 truckloads.
They end up in rivers & seas, where fish are mistaking them for food.

We cannot afford to wait.
Climate policy makers must put water at the heart of action plans.
Water flows across sectors & borders. Working together to manage water more efficiently fights climate change, protects communities & business.
