Lobbying giant PlasticsEurope just launched a greenwashing website about polystyrene recycling -- and you can bet that it’s part of a wider corporate campaign to stop the EU banning products made from this prolific problem plastic. 

The EU’s single-use plastics law is being drafted this autumn, so there is absolutely no time to waste.

We need fresh evidence of polystyrene pollution to fight back -- fast. Thankfully volunteers at Coastwatch are all set to run a survey around the whole coast of Ireland this month, and then report on what they find. 

It’s a mammoth task, and Coastwatch volunteers simply can’t gather and process all the data in time to influence the EU without your support.
