Clean Water Action is joining Habits of Waste to ask the producers, writers, directors, and set decorators in Hollywood to end the proliferation of single-use plastics on-screen.
Similar to the studies that showed how cigarette exposure through onscreen smoking in movies increase smoking rates, it is evident that single-use plastic on screen further normalizes the throw-away society that we find ourselves in today.
With staggering numbers such as 1 million plastic bottles discarded per minute, 500 million plastic straws discarded per day and 40 billion pieces of plastic cutlery discarded per year we must find innovative ways to close the plastic “tap.”
Join us to send an email to The Producers Guild, The Writers Guild, The Directors Guild, The Screen Actors Guild, IATSE, The Art Directors Guild and the biggest studios in Hollywood to request that they eliminate single-use plastics on screen and help denormalize single-use plastics.
