Microplastics

Microplastic Filter Petition

In the Great Lakes, microplastic pollution is an alarming issue for lake species and Ontarians who rely on the lakes for drinking water. One of the main causes is microfibres, which are released from clothes when we do laundry. These microfibers are not filtered out and go directly into our waterways. This petition link aims to pass a bill that will require manufacturing companies to install microfilters on washing machines. YOU can send a message to MPP’s, Ministers and Premiers who have the power to pass this bill.
