“Everyone agrees that plastic waste does not belong in our oceans or anywhere in the environment. This is a complex and serious global challenge that calls for swift action and strong leadership. This new alliance is the most comprehensive effort to date to end plastic waste in the environment. I urge all companies, big and small and from all regions and sectors, to join us."
We are a not-for-profit organization, partnering with the finance community, government and civil society, including environmental and economic development NGOs. We are working to make the dream of a world without plastic waste a reality. We have a strong team bringing together the world-class technical, materials, logistics and engineering expertise, collective resources and global reach of the entire plastic value chain.
Plastics provide health, safety, sustainability and convenience benefits, especially in the developing world where plastic products have helped improve living standards, hygiene and nutrition. They have an important place in our world — but not in our environment.
We are working across the plastics value chain on infrastructure development, education and engagement, innovation, and clean up efforts to keep plastic waste in the right place.
Of concentrated areas of plastic waste already in the environment, particularly major rivers that carry vast amounts of land-based plastic waste to the ocean, to keep waste from reaching the ocean in the first place.
Do your part. And join the fight to help end plastic waste.
