We really trust our process
Our new super mega plastic killer robot.
According to the Pollution Control Department (PCD) of Thailand, the country produces two million tonnes of plastic waste annually (12% of total waste), of which only 25% is recycled. Hence intercepting the plastic waste leakage from the Chao Phraya River is adamant if we are to stop the significant volumes of plastic waste entering the ocean.
True partnership
For this project, Seven Clean Seas is working in collaboration with multiple government stakeholders, as well as The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as an implementation partner overseeing the successful execution in the local market, while we also have established a strong partnership with the monks in charge of the nearby Wat Chak Daeng temple. And we are very happo about it 😉
More than 70% of all ocean plastic enters the ocean via rivers.
Rivers provide both a problematic “conveyor belt” of plastic waste leakage, and at the same time an opportunity for addressing problem more efficiently (before it disperses) and before it can have higher negative impacts on marine life and our health and capturing the plastic waste before it degrades too much – hence increasing its recyclability.
