Will you choose to act this World Cleanup Day?

got into a river in Dar es Salaam to help clear plastic — but standing waist-deep in it made one thing clear: by the time waste reaches the water, it's already too late. Neighbourhoods upstream with no waste collection, have nowhere to put their rubbish.

That's the gap our door-to-door collection is closing — giving waste a place to go before it ever reaches the river.

Before pollution begins. ♻️

Plastic doesn't care who left it behind. It travels through our streets, rivers and oceans, affecting wildlife that had nothing to do with it.

So when we see it, let's choose to act. ♻️

Because we all share this planet. 🌍💙

You can always choose to act.

Wenn du dich für sauberere Ozeane einsetzen willst, achte auf Produkte mit dem CleanHub-Logo.

Hier ist der Grund: Das CleanHub-Logo bedeutet, dass ein Teil deines Kaufs Sabiras Arbeit in einem kleinen Fischerdorf in Kerala finanziert - sie sammelt Plastik direkt bei ihren Nachbarn ein, das früher einfach im Fluss landete.

Jedes gesammelte Kilo wird erfasst und jährlich vom TÜV geprüft.

Bisher sind das über 1.200 Tonnen, gesammelt in Kerala und Bali.

Das löst nicht alles. Aber es ist real, und wir freuen uns, dass dabei mit uns ist. 🤝

Translation in English:

If you want to act for cleaner oceans, make sure to look out for products that have the CleanHub logo on them.

Here is why: the CleanHub logo means that part of your purchase funds Sabira's work in a small fishing village in Kerala - collecting plastic door to door from her neighbours, which used to just end up in the river.

Every kilo collected is tracked and checked by TÜV each year.

So far, that's over 1,200 tons collected in Kerala and Bali.

Not a fix for everything. But it's real, and we're glad is in this with us. 🤝

When our team member *ta received a wildcard to compete in the .qs Shore Temple Classic 2026 in Mahabalipuram, she saw an opportunity for the surf community to come together for something beyond the competition.

At 7:30 am on Indian Independence Day, 15–20 surfers gathered in front of for a beach cleanup and collected 236 kg of plastic in just 1.5 hours!

The collected waste was then sent to CleanHub’s collection partner for sorting and processing.

A simple reminder of what’s possible when we show up for the places we care about.

You don’t need a big movement to make a difference. Every action counts. Every person who shows up matters.

Stories like Jihan's are exactly why we do this.

Watching her grow from a kid in the School on the Beach programme to a full staff member, has been really special!

Every morning she shows up for her community, going door to door in Lihunu Village and making sure the plastic never reaches the ocean. She's 19, she's a mother, and she's one of our quiet heroes. 💙
