Choose Waves, Not Waste

This Plastic Free July, we asked our supporters: What concerns you most about plastic pollution?

From microplastics in our water to plastic harming marine life, one thing is clear—people are ready for change.

Take a look at the results!

 
 

Take your concerns and turn them into action!

Washing machine filters are capable of reducing the release of microplastic fibers from laundry by roughly 90%. Enough of the rinse and repeat cycles—it's time to call on our elected leaders to take action and require filters on all new washing machines.

 
TAKE ACTION
