About Us

MISSION

Raise public awareness about the great risks to human health, and threats to wildlife and the environment from improper and excessive use of plastics, and the breakdown of plastic in the world's oceans

Educate consumers and businesses about safe and economically practical alternatives to plastics for products, packaging and everyday living

Fund research to develop methods to recover, process and reuse or safely dispose of the millions of tons of plastic waste that already pollutes the world's oceans

WHO WE ARE

Plastic Free Ocean is a subsidiary of the Tom Jones Foundation, a federally registered 501(c)3 nonprofit incorporated in California, USA - U.S. Federal EIN #20-5125359. Your donations are tax deductible.

As a qualified public charity, Plastic Free Ocean must receive the majority of its funding from individual contributions. We do, however, welcome sponsorships from corporations that meet our standards for environmental responsibility and good manufacturing processes, and that actively help to promote and support the Plastic Free Ocean cause to their customers.

SUPPORT US

Emerging research shows that plastics - and particularly water-borne plastics that are concentrating and breaking down in large areas of the oceans and tidal environments - are the most serious and directly actionable environmental threat facing mankind.

We urge you to read the research on the risks associated with plastics, and the effects of plastic waste and breakdown byproducts in the world's oceans. The activities directly funded by your contributions will help protect wildlife, your family's health, and the health of people around the world.
