What we do

You are here: What we do Plastic Waste

Plastic Waste

Once plastic waste has found its way to the sea, it’s almost impossible to clean it up. We, therefore, must do everything we can to prevent it from getting so far in the first place.

That’s why Plastic Soup Foundation has so many campaigns and activities in this area: the annual, worldwide World Cleanup Day; the Trash Hunters campaign in which you can participate in your free time; our campaign against the launching of balloons; the Clean Rivers project in which we collaborate with other Dutch organizations; and the Divers for the Ocean project — leave only bubbles!
