Film As a Tool To End Plastic Pollution & Create Environmental Change
Turning Film into Action to End Plastic Pollution
How We Work
Global change rests on local execution. Our global team works with local partners to use the power of film to engage with communities and organizations worldwide, to turn awareness into action.
What We Do
Plastic Oceans is dedicated to end global plastic pollution by collectively informing and mobilizing communities. We achieve this by:
Trees & Seas Festival (TSFF)

The annual Trees & Seas Film-Activism Festival is a 10-day long global festival, celebrating storytelling through film to inspire positive change.

STEP 1

Blue Communties- Sparking collective action
The BlueCommunities initiative uses the power of film to connect leaders worldwide, fostering dialogue on environmental challenges and solutions.
Beyond raising awareness, we empower local action and amplify efforts in education, conservation, advocacy, and innovation, helping build sustainable communities and a better future.
Blue Dialogues – Amplifying Local Realities
Our global team and partners use the power of films to open dialogues, uncovering the challenges communities face in tackling plastic pollution and approaching a circular economy, creating bridges between all key players.
We turn these insights into impact reports, empowering communities with advocacy tools for effective solutions.
STEP 2
Amplifying Local Realities
Our global team and partners use film screenings and facilitated discussions to educate and engage key stakeholders, including local communities, municipalities, youth, and industry leaders.
By recording and analyzing these discussions, we identify key data and challenges specific to each community’s local realities. These insights are then compiled into impact reports, equipping communities with powerful advocacy tools to fight plastic pollution effectively.
STEP 3
Sparking collective action
We go beyond raising awareness by fostering local action and supporting the development of sustainable communities.
