🚨 When disaster strikes, animals are impacted too!

When the devastating floods in Spain took place, vets worked tirelessly to treat animals exposed to contaminated water.

An inspiring display of compassion in crisis.🐱🐕

Big polluters have spent DECADES spreading false claims that recycling can control plastic waste when the truth is only cutting production will.

We need a strong #PlasticsTreaty that holds them to account & drastically CUTS plastic production.

Small Islands are on the frontlines of the climate crisis.

They face more frequent extreme weather events, sea level rise, and ocean warming, among other threats.

Yet, they are the driving force of many climate solutions around the world. Learn how: https://t.co/bIaAbTo0kC https://t.co/iJ131MuYC4
