As we work to tackle ever more challenging problems from climate to #PlasticPollution , it’s crucial to have more scientists informing and participating in policy. AGU (American Geophysical Union) S&TPolicyFellowships empowered me, and countless other scientists, with tools to be part of the solution.

Join me and Ocean Conservancy in urging the US to support a strong global #PlasticsTreaty !

(And for those who don’t know, I’m testing out IG as a new channel for #SciComm - go say hi @plasticfreeanja)
Excited to join this awesome team on the ground in Ottawa for #INC4 for the #PlasticsTreaty ! Come find me to talk about #SourceReduction , #microplastics , #EPR , and generally what it’s going to take to tackle #PlasticPollution and protect our ocean.
T-minus one hour until Ocean Conservancy’s exciting side event with The Nature Conservancy in California at #INC4 talking about solutions and lessons at the local, state, and federal level for an ambitious #PlasticsTreaty !
Here with your annual reminder that over 70% of the surface of the Earth is covered in seawater!
This #EarthDay2024 - join us to protect our ocean from plastic pollution.

T-minus an hour until I’m answering questions about #PlasticPollution live for #EarthDay ! #PlanetVsPlastics
Great to join the International Science Council at #INC4 to talk about how we ensure science and evidence have a seat at the table in the negotiation and implementation of the #PlasticsTreaty . (And to see some of my favorite scientists turned #SciencePolicy wonks!)

T-minus 1 week until #EarthDay ! The theme this year is #PlanetVsPlastics and I'm excited to be joining AAAS (live from Ottawa for #INC4 for the #PlasticsTreaty !) to answer all your questions about #PlasticPollution , #SciencePolicy , & my work with Ocean Conservancy to solve this crisis!
As a proud #CODA (child of deaf adult), I love any excuse to combine my passions for protecting the ocean and language accessibility. Happy #EarthMonth and #NationalASLDay !
#PlanetVsPlastics
If you're in Santa Barbara this Friday, come join me and some of my amazing colleagues at Ocean Conservancy for an evening diving deep on #PlasticPollution and what we can do to end this crisis.

April Fools Day may be over, but #FossilFuels build out of virgin plastics certainly isn’t.
They’re currently preparing to add 14 MILLION+ MT of virgin plastic production around the world, making virgin plastic dangerously cheap.
We need #LessPlastic . Now.
