Planet or Plastic?

Planet or Plastic? is National Geographic's multiyear initiative aimed at raising awareness about the global plastic crisis and reducing the amount of single-use plastic that enters the world's oceans.

Using the power of storytelling and science, National Geographic is encouraging its audiences around the world to help tackle the crisis, beginning with the release of the June issue of National Geographic magazine, which takes an in-depth look at the impact of plastic on ocean health and is available on newsstands now.
