Exhibit Opening: Planet or Plastic?

An exhibition titled ""Planet or Plastic?"" - part of a project by National Geographic to raise awareness of the effects of plastic on our planet, its ecosystems and life forms - was unveiled at UN Headquarters today.
Whoopi Goldberg, Oscar, Tony, Emmy and Grammy recipient, makes remarks during the opening. She shows attendees a bracelet made from recycled plastic by the organization 4Ocean, which partially funds plastic-cleanup initiatives through the sale of such items.
