To be a credible voice on the complex issue of plastic pollution, we must stay on top of latest research.

How other communities succeeded

Bubble Barrier Katwijk

What started in 2018 as an initiative of concerned citizens, has now grown into a unique, widely supported mission to tackle plastic pollution in the Katwijk region, in The Netherlands. This movement has led to the implementation of the Bubble Barrier Katwijk, stopping plastic pollution before reaching the North Sea.

If your organisation wants to support environmental technology solution, you can contribute to our mission by making a donation.

Donations directly contribute to improving our system and researching best possible ways to deploy our technology. We do not only focus on installing Bubble Barriers but continuously research and develop best possible ways to catch as much plastic as possible.

Monitoring & Awareness

As an NGO, you can gather momentum on the project and support us with monitoring activities of the collected plastic by the Bubble Barrier.

With sufficient data, we can create awareness and communiation campaigns on what truly lays in our rivers. You role would be to ensure the monitoring of the plastic, and support or lead communication activities.

Lobbying for regulation

If your organisation is more activist, we would be happy to partner up with you to develop communication campaigns to influence policy makers on the need for regulation for our waterways.

Your role could be to initiate ideas on how to create communication campaigns using our current monitoring data. This will be done in collaboration with our communication team.
