Member - Plastic Bank
Plastic Bank stops ocean plastic; we monetize waste, reduce impoverishment, and ignite a Social Plastic® revolution.
About
Plastic Bank is a root cause solution to ocean plastic — by enabling the exchange of plastic for money, items, or Blockchain secured digital tokens, we reveal the value in plastic.
This empowers recycling ecosystems around the world and stops the flow of plastic into our oceans. All while helping people living in poverty build better futures.
Plastic bank provides a consistent, above-market rate for plastic waste to incentivize its collection.
Individuals who gather our plastic can trade it for money, items, or services, and the collected plastic is recycled and sold at a premium as Social Plastic, a recycled material made from ocean-bound waste and used by global brands for manufacturers sold as a socially responsible alternative to virgin plastic.
