The topic of menstruation is still considered taboo to discuss in many cultures, despite the fact that half of the people on our planet menstruate approximately every 28 days. The July 28th 2021 webinar – Plastic Free Periods: Protecting Our Bodies & Preventing Plastic Pollution, discussed the connections between plastic pollution, menstruation, and social change.
The webinar was sponsored by Plastic Pollution Coalition member Natracare and in partnership with Coalition member Menstrual Cup Coalition. There were a lot of learnings from activists and leaders about period justice and how to protect your body from toxic chemicals in products, while exploring the movements happening now around menstrual practices toward a more just, equitable world.
