Styrofoam is hiding in our oceans everywhere, we just don’t know it. Our
partner, @5Gyres is doing groundbreaking research into the effects of polystyrene and expanded
polystyrene foam--commonly known as Styrofoam--on our health and environment. We know that polystyrene
causes cancer in animals, but how does it affect us? Polystyrene is in packaging, takeout containers,
and even coffee cup lids! That’s why we’re going #foamfree and refusing single-use polystyrene products.
You can too by taking the pledge at www.5gyres.org/styrofoam. Together, we can keep styrofoam out of our
oceans!
Frustrated with our government? Change starts with YOUR voice! We’ve partnered
with plastic pollution researchers @5Gyres to bring you the latest science on the effects of polystyrene
on our health. With their research, we can reach out to our legislators to ban this toxic substance!

We’ve partnered with plastic researchers @5Gyres to discover what’s really
going on with polystyrene and expanded polystyrene foam--better known as Styrofoam--in our oceans. Did
you know coffee cup lids are often made from polystyrene? This plastic is not recyclable, and often ends
up in our oceans? Gross! We’re going #foamfree by refusing single-use polystyrene products! Pledge with
us at www.5gyres.org/styrofoam!
The best way to be #foamfree is to REFUSE it! Pledge
