Our CleanHubs span 3 continents and are located in some of the world’s worst plastic pollution hotspots. Currently, more than 2 billion people dispose of their trash in nature because no one collects it. Your support means our global CleanHubs connect people  in coastal communities to waste collection, preventing plastic from ever polluting our environment. The waste collection you support is door-to-door, or directly from beaches or rivers, creating safe and dignified jobs with fair pay and opportunities.

Our Clean Kerala hub works with collection partner, Greens Worms Waste Management to organize door-to-door collection services across southern India, with the help of women empowerment groups.

Derma E's strategy for positive change

Impact progress

2017 marks the tenth year DERMA E has been manufacturing with wind power, reducing their environmental footprint by offsetting 100% of conventional electricity use with wind energy certificates. This renewable energy purchase supports DERMA E in their continuing effort to completely offset carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. They purchase Renewable Energy Certificates from Sterling Planet Inc. These certificates help Sterling Planet build a market for renewable electricity, increase energy diversity and security, reduce dependence on foreign energy sources, support domestic economies and create US jobs.
