Balloon Releases

When balloons enter our environment, they pose an indefinite threat to wildlife and human health. Most balloons never degrade and contain harmful additives.¹

Many animals mistakenly ingest littered balloons, especially sea turtles, farm livestock, and seabirds.² Seabirds are 32 times more likely to die swallowing balloons than hard plastic waste.³

The microplastic crisis has never been greater – every balloon released into the sky will return to earth as a source of pollution that poisons our waterways.
