Toy consumption is a global contributor for ongoing issues about environmental justice and climate change. Each year, 60 million Barbie dolls are sold, contributing emissions equivalent to burning 381 million gallons of gasoline. In France, 40 million toys are discarded into landfills annually, and worldwide, toys make up 6 percent of all landfill plastics. Beyond the wall of indifference, manufacturers and consumers can lower these numbers using the tools of design, material selection, and marketing.
