End Plastic Pollution by Turning The Power of Film into the Power of Action

 Turning Film into Action to End Plastic Pollution

How We Work

Global change rests on local execution: Our global team and partners harness the power of film to engage with communities worldwide, turning awareness into action through our programs.

 

 

What We Do

Plastic Oceans is dedicated to end global plastic pollution by collectively informing and mobilizing communities. We achieve this by:
A Powerful Film Library

Films transcend cultural and geographical boundaries, inspiring emotion, awareness, and action.

That’s why our film library is accessible to everyone, everywhere, offering a diverse collection of impactful films.

STEP 1
Curating a powerful film library

We offer a diverse collection of thought-provoking films that inform, inspire, and ignite discussions and actions. The library is accessible to all without territorial rights limits.

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.

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.

STEP 3
Sparking collective action

We go beyond raising awareness by fostering local action and supporting the development of sustainable communities.

Uniting communities in the fight against plastic pollution through the lens of film.
