Our sustainability commitment at Akar

Akar intro

Why we act on plastic

We are committed to picking up 5,500 lbs (2,500 kg) of plastic by November 2024. Our primary collection site is in Kerala, India through a partnership with Cleanhub + Green Worms.

More than
2 billion people worldwide
dispose of their trash in nature because there are no waste collection services.

By working with CleanHub, we’re connecting people in coastal regions to proper waste collection where it didn’t exist before.

Sustainability projects we support

Our projects not only help the environment but also create more jobs in coastal communities, where workers are treated well, paid fairly, and have the opportunity to learn new skills.

How we’re impacting communities

By supporting plastic collection projects, we’re helping to improve people's lives and drive long-term change, empowering women and educating the next generation along the way.

By working with CleanHub, we’re making sure 5,500 lb of plastic will never end up in our oceans. 🙌
