Coming Soon: The new #breakfreefromplastic podcast

Produced by Break Free From Plastic

The petrochemical industry is the largest global driver of the increased demand for oil and gas, fueling the climate crisis and its disastrous impacts on the most vulnerable communities and ecosystems. Yet, this extremely high fossil fuel-consuming industry has remained a complete oversight in the EU public energy and climate debates. This is despite clear and feasible pathways to reduce consumption of one of its main products: plastic. Join us for #BreakFreeFromPlastic's new podcast series, Winter Will Come Again, hosted by Sarah Diedro Jordão and with special guests from the Break Free From Plastic movement and beyond.
