As the world’s biggest soft drinks company, Coca-Cola bears a particular responsibility for the plastic crisis our oceans are facing. Valued at over $178 billion in 2015 and operating in over 200 countries, Coca-Cola has the means and influence across the sector to help end this flow of plastic pollution.
Yet despite claiming to care about ocean plastics, Coca-Cola is hiding the scale of its plastic footprint and failing to take meaningful action to stop its products from polluting our seas.
Greenpeace is calling on Coca-Cola to accept its responsibility for ocean plastic pollution and commit to rapidly phase out the use of throwaway plastic packaging.
Greenpeace is a people-powered, science-based, and action-oriented organization that does not take money from corporations or governments. This means we rely on individual donations from generous people like you to carry out our work.
