About Us

The Zero Plastic Movement is acclaimed as a vibrant environmental organization dedicated to fostering a global transformation towards the reduction of plastic waste and the promotion of sustainable alternatives. Its mission is to realize a world devoid of plastic pollution and to safeguard both humans and animals from the detrimental effects of microplastics.

The organization’s endeavors are centered around four core pillars:

Prevention: Efforts in awareness and education are spearheaded to motivate communities to refuse and minimize plastic use, thereby reducing pollution.

Removal: Environmental protection is prioritized through the orchestration of community-led clean-up events and the implementation of plastic traps designed to capture waste in waterways.

Reduction: Industries are empowered and supported in their pursuit of innovations in plastic alternatives, facilitating the development and adoption of sustainable solutions.

Assessment: The ZeroPlastic Certification, offered in collaboration with Control Union, is awarded to businesses that demonstrate a commitment to reducing plastic pollution and advancing sustainable practices.

Supported by a network of over 11,000 dedicated volunteers, the Zero Plastic Movement has engaged more than 100,000 individuals in environmental education and clean-up initiatives, conducted over 1,000 clean-up events, and removed more than 250 metric tons of plastic waste. The movement has also empowered and supported over 120 industries focused on plastic alternatives and featured over 350 products on its marketplace.

Innovative initiatives include the creation and deployment of canal and river strainers to prevent waste from entering the ocean and the launch of the ZeroPlastic App to foster volunteerism among youth and communities. These efforts have been recognized with prestigious awards and significant media attention. The movement is bolstered by its extensive Club network, which exceeds 11,000 members, and continues to expand through the establishment of ZeroPlastic clubs across universities and schools.

Volunteers associated with the Zero Plastic Movement are offered the opportunity to contribute significantly to environmental restoration, earn valuable certifications, and access internships, all while enhancing their leadership skills and broadening their professional network.

The vision of the Zero Plastic Movement is to achieve a world where nature is liberated from plastic pollution and both humans and animals are protected from the impacts of microplastics.
