End Single Use Plastics in East Africa
We do not seek to ban all plastics. Instead, we envision a world without single-use plastics. We also see a world where plastic is produced and consumed responsibly, and where plastic is part of a circular economy - in which waste is eliminated and plastic (and all other materials) can be used and reused continuously.
