The Plastic Soup Surfer builds boards from plastic litter. He surfs those for his campaigns and expeditions. The attention is used to change policy or confront companies. Petitions, bailiffs, resolutions are his tools. He forces concrete change at decision maker level. At the source of the plastic pollution problem.
We need to close the tap on plastic pollution. The plastic soup problem does not start in the oceans or in the rivers; it starts on land. Solutions should also be found on land therefore. Plastic is a fantastic material. The way we handle it is far from fantastic. Plastic has proven to be the catalyst to a 'Throw Away Culture'. Our society is designed around 'single use'. A change has got to come.
We are taking action... Get involved!
We organize impact to make the plastic transition happen. We are uniting the community of 'Grass Roots' plastic-warriors to increase our influence. We organize conferences and campaigns, we make documentaries, give presentations regularly and keep the community updated on whats happening in the world of plastic through our 'Plastic Soup Surfer' YouTube Channel.
Regular meetings with legislators and companies, frequently giving talks and showing our films enables us to influence the public debate on plastic. Organise a screening of one of our films or Invite the Plastic Soup Surfer for the future vision on plastics. Plastics is tangible and that makes change visible.
