Indonesia ranks as the 2nd largest plastic polluter to the oceans after China.

We have identified over 350 illegal landfills in Bali.

A lot of this is due to the lack of waste management and recycling infrastructure. Although Indonesia has pledged to reduce 70% of plastic pollution it emits into the ocean by 2025, we are continuing to see an increase in illegal landfills that are piling up alongside rivers.

Education + Outreach

Community outreach is an essential part of our mission to combat plastic pollution. We organize education sessions to engage communities and encourage better waste management. We host education and cleanup events with local schools on a regular basis. We invite local businesses, governments, and social groups to our cleanups to try and curb plastic pollution at the local level.

Thank you to our volunteers!

Since launching our weekly volunteer cleanup programs in April 2022, we have accomplished over 23,210 volunteer hours and removed over 534,728kg of non-organic trash! Through our weekly volunteer cleanups, we are proud to empower local communities to stop illegal dumping.
