See the full journey of ocean plastics, and what real conservation looks like
Most people only see one side of plastic pollution - the bottle they throw away, or the trash they pick up during a beach clean-up. What they don't see is the full journey of ocean plastics - from the impact on local communities, to the end-to-end solutions. This experience shows your team the entire journey of ocean plastic, from pollution to solution. You’ll start with a beach clean-up, visit a coastal community most affected by plastic waste, and go behind the scenes at a Materials Recovery Facility to see how plastic is transformed into roof tiles used to support local homes.It’s a powerful experience for sustainability-minded teams who want to go beyond surface-level conversations and see what real, practical conservation looks like on the ground.About Seven Clean Seas: Founded with a passion for ocean conservation, Seven Clean Seas is an ocean impact organisation dedicated to tackling the plastic crisis.

Seven Clean Seas started with one moment that changed everything. While on holiday, founder Tom Peacock-Nazil watched a beautiful beach disappear under plastic after a storm, and realised how little most of us see of the problem. What began as weekend clean-ups soon became a full-time mission: to remove plastic from the ocean in a way that actually lasts. Today, Seven Clean Seas doesn’t just clean beaches. They build real waste systems, create proper jobs for people on the frontlines, and turn plastic into useful materials for local communities. Their goal is simple but ambitious: keep plastic out of the ocean for good - by fixing the system, not just the symptoms.
