BALI
Founded in London,
We are a global company focused on sustainable development. Our mission is to drive socio-economic growth and protect the environment through scalable solutions for water conservation, ocean preservation, and sustainable agriculture.
Bali is facing a severe plastic waste crisis, threatening both ecosystems and local communities. The island generates 300,000 tons of plastic waste annually, with over 50% mismanaged — either burned or improperly dumped. As a result, 33,000 tons of this waste flow into rivers, water bodies, and the ocean, contributing to severe pollution.
Join the effort to stop Bali’s plastic waste from polluting our waterways and oceans.
