Tell Whole Foods Market: Put our planet over plastic

Dear CEO John Mackey,

Our oceans -- and the whales, dolphins and sea turtles that live in them -- are choking on plastic trash. We need to turn off the tap on the 8 million metric tons of plastic pollution that enter the ocean each year, and you can play a leading role by eliminating single-use plastic packaging.

Nothing that is used for just a couple of minutes should pollute our rivers and oceans for hundreds of years -- especially when we don't need it. If we're going to protect ocean ecosystems, we need companies to make bold, concrete commitments to reduce and ultimately eliminate single-use plastic packaging. I'm urging Whole Foods to be a leader once again. Please eliminate all single-use plastic packaging from your operations.
