Beyond Petrochemicals

In September 2022, UN Special Envoy on Climate Ambition and Solutions Michael R. Bloomberg launched Beyond Petrochemicals: People Over Pollution, a new campaign that will aim to halt the rapid expansion of petrochemical and plastic pollution in the United States. Drawing on the success of Beyond Coal and Beyond Carbon, Beyond Petrochemicals will block the expansion of more than 120 proposed petrochemical and plastic projects concentrated in three target geographies – Louisiana, Texas, and the Ohio River Valley – and will also work to establish stricter rules for existing plants to safeguard the health of American communities.
