概要

On Earth Day 2026, this episode explores the vast reach of plastic pollution — from beaches and deep-sea trenches to our drinking water and even human bodies — and how plastics and climate change form a linked crisis. Moves toward achieving a workable global treaty committing to measures to avoid polluting the ocean and reducing plastic use stalled close to two years ago. Meantime, a growing awareness of the link between plastic disposal and climate change as a lifecycle highlight the urgency to address the problem. Yet, few seem to be taking note. We look at actions we can take at the grassroots level and as always, see where our intentions and prayers may be most needed. Intentions and prayers begin at 24 minutes 17 seconds. Suggested Intention Focus for this week This week, as we reflect on the mounting, multiple impacts of plastic pollution on the environment, animals, human health, and climate change, we suggest holding as our main intention: We will that the media and other voices with influence will bring about a mass public awareness of the link between plastic waste and climate change, moving individuals to redouble their efforts to reduce and properly dispose of waste. Please join us in holding this. Earth Day 2026, 22 April 2026.
