Can the healthcare sector prevent plastic pollution? For #breakfreefromplastic member Healthcare Without Harm Southeast Asia, the answer is YES! Together with its partners, they recently launched a plastics toolkit for hospitals.

In the past weeks, Southeast Asian countries like the Philippines and Malaysia are taking a stand to protect their own communities and environment by sending waste shipments back to the Global North. Time Magazine takes a closer look on the issue.
