Plastics are literally killing our marine life and McDonald's is complicit. The fast-food giant dumps millions of one-time-use plastic straws every day.
In a cringe-inducing video that's gone viral, a team of scientist pull a plastic straw from the nostril of a sea turtle while it winces in pain and bleeds.
Over 370,000 SumOfUs members like you have already demanded that McDonald’s stops polluting our oceans. Now it’s time to turbo change our efforts.
The plan? Expose the dark side of McDonald’s during the Winter Olympics in a few week’s time. McDonald’s is the main sponsor of the Olympics, so they’ll be more sensitive than usual to how they look on the world stage. Can you make it happen?
Please, can you chip in to help launch a hard-hitting video campaign -- to clash with McDonald’s own online advertising around the Olympics?
